Lessons from The Seine

The Sun disappeared

The Moon appeared

The Seine came to Life

I looked at my wife

She knew that was I was in a trance

In a land christened France

I asked The Seine

What she had for me

She told me “I am on the move”

Change is the Law of Nature

However much you mature

The water you see now

Is not the same you saw earlier

Nor the same you will see later

Life unfolds every moment

Accept it as it comes

For change is inevitable

A static life is death

A moving life is birth

Every moment you are reborn

To experience the next moment

And to learn from the previous moment”

I bowed my head to Her

In gratitude for what I learnt from her.
