Fluidity

Of the things I cannot change
I’m thankful.

As thankful for the freeze 
In my bones.
The human in me,
Needing moments to thaw.

Even these moments 
have space 
for more than me.

I return to water, adjusting to
The stone in my path.
I make my way around, or through
Brushing by, 
As gently as I can.

I’m in no rush.

While there is weight behind me, 
and power,
I owe no apology if 
you are moved.

I owe only thanks, 
As I do
If you are not.
