I Am Full
I am full of warm water
and warm water surrounds me
I float for hours, and no one sees me, or notices
everyone walks by silently, peacefully
and I’m content to mingle and float
I am full of warmth, soaked into me by time
I’ll never stop being warm
I am hardened and dense like petrified wood
but I feel soft, look soft, and I still can float
I drift to the shore,
it’s bright green, with tiny leaves on tiny plants,
they softly cover the mud and dirt completely
I am full of peace, I’m growing slowly
to cover the ground with the green plants
the people left long ago
and I sleep and grow for years alone
with the tiny green plants
I am full of green, bright green
life
invigorated and bright I have much to do
but still inside I can be warm and green and peaceful

Eva,
This is beautiful and honest. I too like the part about being hardened and dense, but feeling soft. I also like the line, "I'm growing slowly to cover the ground with the green plants..."
Very nice.
