the river journey

by Rich Simpson, Taurus - Not entered

the sweetness of birth, skipping across stones
in a shallow river of liquid sunshine
the pureness of spirit, inside the cracked shell
slipping outside into the light
the bruises of sorrow, stained with bitterness
darkening the borders and emptying the sky
grab the jewel, bright and clear
expanding your vision on the inside

Reason for writing:

    This poem was inspired by a dream I had in which I was going
through a river that kept changing.
