this









i know
that
this shadow is water
this ripple is rock
this whisper is wind
this petal a word
these dry stalks a beginning
these rocks
a history
this tree stump a story
this cloud a song
this thought a colour
this dream a world
this moment
a completion

and vice versa! the water is shadow, the rock a ripple, wind is a whisper, words are petals, etc. This is a truly beautiful bit of poetic inspiration, Steven!
