May: Cleanse

Make me a stone in the creek. Carve me of limestone and submerge me deep. River flowing free, teach me to add movement to the stagnant places. Sun beams sneak through the trees. Illuminate the shadows I cannot, choose not to see. Cold. Plunge. Refresh. Tumbling, rippling, frothing, flow. Where am I? Sit. Still. Communion with the flow. Commune with water, of the world and of yourself. Honor your sweat and your tears. River veins, blood veins, what is flowing through you? Add movement to your stagnant places. What needs cleansed?
