And Back To A River Again

Grateful Dead: Bird Song (1980)
Grateful Dead: Black Muddy River


and i feel like
the queen of water
i feel like water
that transforms
from a flowing river
to a tranquil lake
to a powerful waterfall
to a freshwater spring
to a meandering creek
to a salty sea
to raindrops
gentle on your face
to hard stinging hail
to frost on a mountaintop
and back to a river again
