Water is a transparent fluid which forms the world's streams, lakes, oceans and rain and is the major constituent of the fluids of organisms. Water covers 71% of the Earth's surface. It is vital for all known forms of life.
Also vital to life is the relationships we develop with family and friends. In this series, water is the transparent barrier between two people treading there way through life.
Promise Me
Promise me
That for as many hours
You spend trying
To keep your head above water,
Surrendering to the austerity of
The breaking waves
And the mystery of
An open ocean, you inhale sea salt and exhale anxiety.
Promise me That for every time
You spend your energy treading water,
You delve into the color cobalt
And see a world better than your own.
Promise me that
You will dive into the waves Instead of backing away,
Shed your worry
And welcome adventure.
