Water Beings – v2



a bond seemingly tenuous
held by the cell walls
the cellophane of our skin
merely bags of water
a wonder how we live

water beings, truly,
held within our bodies
beings of light, eternal
found within this water

hard to comprehend
nothing of what we perceive
unlimited, eternal
made in the image of God
not bound by bags of flesh
