I embody desires
My power can never be calmed
I breathe moments
That flow through timeless terrain
To add glory to wilderness.
***
I race like thoughts
Yet I could calm a myriad mind
I heal without words
Hopes crumble into me
To create a balm for souls.

Thanks to Colleen and Trent for the inspiration.

Such a clever poem, Balroop–“My power can never be calmed” “Yet I could calm a myriad mind”. A metaphor for so much in life, not just water. Thank you for this.

This is a nature poem brilliantly done, Balroop. I love the lines ‘I breathe moments’ and ‘I heal without words’. Both phrases remind me of slowing down and silence can help us center ourselves. Your poem reminds me of walking through nature, away from the hustle and bustle of city life and just enjoying the small moments as they are right in front of us. Do I like nature poetry? I like your nature poetry. Keep up the writing 🙂 Wonderful image by Trent.
I am delighted to hear that you like my poetry. Many thanks for such encouraging words dear friend. Stay blessed.
I like the contrast you show in this poem – those we find in Nature, and in US: a power that can’t be calmed; racing thoughts but a calm mind; hope crumbles yet creates a balm. Fascinating paradoxes.
You have a discerning eye dear Pam. Thanks for lingering over the words, I appreciate your love for poetry. 🤗
Wow! I love these, Balroop! “I breathe moments” “I race like thoughts” Absolutely brilliant! ❤
Thank you Vashti 😊
