drinking the water
becoming one with it
sharing its essence
its life force, power
drinking the water
sharing with it, becoming
your life, your story
the journey it is taking
becoming a portion, a
droplet
a stop on its sojourn
the water abiding
while it walks with us

“Drinking the water”
in response to post by
Richard Tackett
on Facebook:
a quote by Taisen
Deshimaru
“If
you have a glass full of liquid you can discourse forever on its qualities,
discuss whether it is cold, warm, whether it is really and truly composed of
H-2-O, or even mineral water, or saki. Meditation
is Drinking it!””
