Water glistens
as the sun radiates on it.
Mist sprays across my face
as the water slips by.  Rushing
water swirls around my feet
as I step into the river.
The cool, clear liquid
overtakes me.  It washes away
my worries and fears.
Nothing can shatter the calm
or the silence of the water.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.
