I Am Water

I am water

homeless,tireless and

yes,I am always free

and this freedom of mine

defines my identity.

During primal times,

when the Earth was violent

and raw lava flowed madly

across the land,I was born

from the dilapidated womb

of Nature to alleviate the

chaos that prevailed.

I suffered,I suffered a lot,

the pain was acute

and the fiery battleground

mocked at my presence,

but then I realized my essence.

That I can rise,above the pain

above the world,above gods even,

to change my destiny as I like.

For I know, in the end all that

would be left off is me and there

lies my deepest secret.

I can engulf the whole of landmass

if I like,rage titanic waves to obliterate

everything in my way,but to what end?

isn't it true that I can bring smile in the

face of a thirsty pilgrim,wash away the pain

of mortals through their tears,nurture the

flowers so that they can bloom with passion.

isn't it true that I have a rare gift to create

life,and so I create,tirelessly and randomly,

each shape and form unique by itself from

where life thrives.Know that I am the only

one who can offer the natural world a sweet

taste of my immortality.
