Ripples In The Water Poem by D Loveday Morris

Ripples In The Water

Rating: 5.0


Like ripples in the water and rising tide
We are not just mere attraction to people passing by
Like ripples in the water I have a powerful source
Who has the strength to sail or sink your boat


Like ripples in the water seemingly carefree
The superficial miss my intentional-ity
Like the wind and water making caterpillar waves
My existence will transcend the grave


Like ripples in the water on a day the wind seems too quiet to see
I'm forever using energy, to create things of essence and beauty
I create ripples in people's minds
And impact the way they live, feel, think and what they do all the time


Like ripples in the water seemingly carefree
The superficial will miss my intentional-ity
Like ripples in the water use that force
Create that upthrust for someone's sinking boat

Be like ripples in the water, more than catapillar waves
Let your existence transcend the grave
Be a servant but never a slave
Let your livity transcend the grave
