    What a crazy place to be,
    this variable Monday afternoon.
    Everything is wild, descriptive,
    and pure.
    I'm rappin' to the open air
    like mad, and singin' songs.
    Smilin' to myself,
    everything is pure.

    Where does the body
    go from here?
    Home, to sleep
    in cotton cozy.
    The mind goes
    trippin' thru the
    cosmos and back.

    The spirit rides the
    sky, as always.

    Everything follows the path,
    in waves,
    travellin' the speed of
    Sound.

    Furiously groovin' to the
    sound of Mother Nature,
    creating her art as she
    carves the ground.

    -I hug you now, in the murky
    water, waist deep and warm!

    -I baptize you in the name of
    the Sun and the Holy Buddha!

    Diving into Heaven with
    feet gently kicking,
    arms idly rowing,
    body freely floating,
    I'm home.

    Flowing downstream,
    I'm drowning,
    and I don't even care.

    The last two lines kind of threw me off, but again, I do love your style and the imagery is great! :)

    Maybe he's drowning in the bounty of life? He's going with the flow so well he's lost in it, very nice. Either way, this is a hell of a poem dude, has the spirit of the river all the way through it.

    I love this one... this is my favorite out of the recent poems so far. It's uplifting and dancey when you read it aloud. And you have a gift for description

    This is a really great poem. It makes me want to go dance outside or explore a forest or something. It`s descriptive in the way that you can actually feel that warm murky water or the cozy cotton instead of just imagining it.
