We are of the going water and the gone
We are of water in the holy land of water
Can’t you see where memories are kept bright?
Tripping on the water like a laughing girl
Time in her eyes is spawning past life
One with the ocean and the woman unfurled
Holding all the love that waits for you here
Catch us now, for I am your future
A kiss on the wind, and we’ll make the land
Come over here to where When lingers
Waiting in this empty world
Waiting for Then, when the life spray cools
For now, does ride in on the curl of the wave
And you will dance with me in the sunlit pools
We are of the going water and the gone
We are of water in the holy land of water
And all that’s to come runs in
With the thrust on the strand~ John Carder Bush
