Shimmering eddies I'm rippling along.
Frothing foam currents ever so strong.
Collecting persuasions felt on my way,
Felt here among tidal velocity's sway.
Optimal drops or high rises in waves.
Eventful sequence of brand new days.
Minuscule moisture of a rivers fill.
Seeking reason to infinity's spill.
Crashing against boulders strong,
Rising above mysterious throngs.
Perpetual motion ebbing through,
dark murky waters of phantom hue.
Sojourning vapors swept in faith,
in natures intent of all's fair play.
Yet curves in blind bends of a river,
seldom shows what fates deliver.
A lifetimes swift waters run deep,
problematic at times,yet always unique.
My surface exterior flows calmly along,
hidden an undertow in emotional fog.
Till spirit bonds one with the sea,
I,effervescence of what life makes of me.

I loved the feel of this. The rhythm and flow of the words echoes that of water. We are indeed upon life's billows tossed. A great write.
