Around

Posted on June 5, 2012 By rayawambui No Comments on Around

I took a minute, to look at a brook,
cascading resiliently, down, around
and down and around.
Intuitively, it knows it must go on, it must go down
and it must sometimes go around.
Down and around, up and around;
as it does in the hot sunshine.
It rises
Up
and sometimes around
Then up.

That surety is beautiful, an
ever present
note to us
from Mother earth.
Set target,
Overcome obstacles.
Aim fire.
Don’t stop.
Just up and around and up.
Don’t linger.
Just down and around and down.
Keep moving…
Always.
