yet the sea is not full;
unto the place from whence the rivers come,
thither they return again.

in the mountains.

It is a warm green rain
with love
in its pockets
for spring is here,

of death.

in a land
where children love spiders,
and let them sleep
in their hair.

on the river
like a pan
full of frying flowers,

It's easy, given the times we live in and the implicit messages we absorb each day, to equeate a good life with having a lot and doing a lot.
