The Flow

I know a River runs thru the kingdom…
Natural progression now restricted by unseen barriers
The flow of life is now enslaved by uninvited commands
Uncontrollable twigs of thought – recognized, but rebellious

An unwanted reservoir is forming from these chains
With all movement stalemating …
Murky, moss covered depression emerges
The surface of the land, crumbling from the pain

Please, help restore this cleansing River.
The connections between the land & castle
Are incomplete, without this flow of cleansing love
That restores hope and faith to all struggling thoughts

The castle is in need of catharsis
Only the Spirit of the River can provide
A foundation, though firm, needs moisture to survive
To balance, compress the terra firma tides

Welcome with invitation the darkening clouds
And embrace the rain…
Rejoice in the cleansing acceptance
Of the needed ingredient - Change!
