waterunderthebridge

i watch the water flowing by and wonder where it goes, does it rise to the heavens and then return in measured, steady flows? six hours in six hours out the tides are keeping time, sometimes savage as a bullet, sometimes gentle as a rhyme. water is essential, it keeps us all alive, so i search the perfect pool and take an awkward dive and hold my breath and watch the bubbles arrive............june is here, yeahhhhhh...jack c

  1. Thanks for commenting! My Confirmation was great. I remembered my Bible verses. And then my family came over.

    How are you?
