River’s Edge
By R. Cary
Walking on the River’s edge, my soul only thinks to drift.
Wondering in my heart, what my life would be like if I
crossed this river’s edge. A flowing stream, a lived
consciousness pulsing along this earth, beating its
own path, running its own course. If I only knew its
rhythm I could jump right in, live as one within this
Earth; through this river’s muse, I could see as one.
If only I was brave enough to let go, to face my fears
of uncertainty, to trust this river, to listen to its eternal
bliss. If I only I knew how to live in my instincts, to trust
my own self-beliefs to say to myself, I can only live for the
next. If only I knew tomorrow would never come I would live
like today was my last to jump in this river’s course, letting it
give to me. If only I could let this river guide to truth in this life,
truth in what was here before me, a living history in front of me.
If only I knew what this river know’s, how much more knowledge
this river holds than me. So much I want to know, each ripple an
exposure of truth, each a turn of life. If only I knew what is ahead
on my journey, what this river carved to live, a story we should all
See in our humanity; we over time have our truth to become. For
If only I could tell our truth, our beaten paths wearing this world
Into canyons of our will, letting truth and pureness arrive in our
ripples of faith. If only I could see we are the river flowing with
purpose with this earth as a relentless humanity living in this
mother earth; if only I could see we are this river’s course
