Walking on Water

i revised a recent poem, and this is what came out of it...


Walking on Water

it would be a moment of stillness

the sea would touch
the soles of your feet
and it would wonder
at your weightlessness

while you,
a child of the wind,
would marvel at its strength

here,
where heaven kisses its tears,
you will wait

for the sea to whisper
the meaning of its depths

and in turn,
you will reveal your soul's journey
up until this singular instant --

how your horizon is no longer
an illusion of an endless line
that always comes full circle

and how, as you tell an ancient friend,
much has changed
with the way you see the world
