Let it flow

The sun warmed my skin
as I sat upon the cool rocks
The minnows swam in circles around me
as reflections of light cleared my mind
I felt at peace on the Shenandoah
a sense of oneness with the current
Beads of sweat relieved scorned brows
expressing the strain of days
My life is like that river
flowing out to sea
Many dams have been broken
I am calm , I am beautiful , I give life to all around me
The more you add to me the stronger I become
You can never destroy me
For I am part of something much greater
What you take from me only makes me deeper
So rock bottom I'll never touch
My waves are veins of life that reach out to the ones I love
Come sit on the rock with me
I will shelter you from the storm
But you will never learn to swim
from sitting on a rock
