I wanted to flow endlessly like a river

I wanted to flow endlessly like a river

I wanted to flow endlessly like a river,
but I stayed where I was,
because I saw,
the flow is everywhere, in all.

So I have breathed in the soft ripple of a butterfly's wings
buried myself in the ground
grew up as a flower
from air, seed and soil
with patience
knowing that the rain would come
waiting for nothing
whole in every moment
hours, days listening to the wind surrending to dance with it
branches of trees, high up,
all the flowers and grass
near and far
our dance

I have dissolved into the summer and will die when the frost comes
