waters
silent, still and sounding
cascading rain
the ever present cresting tide
its call to the moon
the soft flowing streams
the rhythmic ripples of lake and pond
pulsing, flowing, cresting
alchemic gift of sun and life
be water's glory and praise
oceans plea be it heard
within resounds
the Creator's WORD.
