watershed moment...
we balance on a fallen tree trunk arms outstretched and free
we climb the tallest coconut filled palm tree
we beg an eagle to carry us into its cliff nest
we squash a ripe mango till juice drops stain our silk blouse vest
we prick our finger tips and taste the salty friendship blood drops
we shadow in the rim of our wide brim hat tops
we lose faith as we hold hurt and devastation in despise
we bring tears to our eyes when we watch a child's happy squeal surprise
we know we have crossed the watershed when life's thunderstorm drops
splash love and happiness in our daily wheat field circle crops
