Evaporation

Evaporation

Water abides
    in the ocean
like wisdom in
    joy and patience.

Waves abound
    with life
when the tide is
    lost in the sea.

Horizons
all around me,
sometimes fill
with clouds.

Dark clouds
from the sea,
feed
all the rivers.

Horizons
    all around me,
the start and end
    of intention:

As long as
    the sea endures,
may I be here
    for all,

within this
    empty ocean,
drying
    trepidation.
