Water Ritual
Walking on her land barefoot, Dewy grass cleanses my soles, And I carefully watch the trodden blades Lifting back up to life.
Up in the sky his sun fire, Warms down to catch my heart Awaken my senses to come alive. To Sense another realm in this world Fluid in form I yearn to feel her integration. Here by her spring life’ s born to form I follow her path, along her way, Her stream begins and builds in flow Ebbs, winds and curve’ s as she forms. Flowing surer and stronger, Her river becomes and is deeper, livelier. Sea Salmon jump and splash in her wake Her journey takes onwards and outwards. Yearning becomes more and to much, My Vessel calls to join her, Diving in feeling fresh and cooled Shiver shine and flow down spine, Freshness is purifying intoxication on high, Cleansed healing waters swim through and around.
Let her take me on her course, To feel her flow as she broadens, So soon her banks become shores, My Vessel thin as a shell Tossed and turned on waves, Her currents carry direction, To feel this immersion and connection Ride me on her sea, To take me wherever she goes, Far sail away for bliss,
