carried away

try bathing in the river
swim, swim, swim some more

you feel light, you are like a fish now
carried by the magic of the coolness of the water

you long for depths and distance
you forget the banks and stones and land

you are carried away floating
trusting the instincts of water and sky

you do not even notice that it is already dark
and the moon begins to sail with you

towards a dreamy evening where you are
free and casual and light like a drifting leaf.
