Ahurani

You flow into me.
Naturally.
Like water.
Seeking level ground, the center way,
Soft and welcome as the first spring rain
Quenching parched earth.
You flow over and through me
And together we are new, lush, full.

You crash into me.
Powerfully.
Like the ocean’s tide.
Wave upon wave upon the rocky shoal of my soul,
A constant, cosmic rhythm
Softening rough edges, bringing new life,
Marking me forever.
You nourish and sooth me
And together we are eternal.
