Moving...

Life has to move,

like the stream.

It has to journey 

through hard falls,

through green valleys.

It has to house, unselfishly

other creatures

without polluting it's own waters.

When it gets stuck,

behind rocks and boulders

and begins to moss over,

to collect dirt,

It is reminded 

how important it is

to keep moving.
