Thirsty plants want rain;
their roots search in darkness.
A river wants the ocean;
pushes its way around, over any obstacle.
A boulder wants to fall,
roars down a mountainside.
Thirsty plants,
flowing river,
falling boulder:
wanting is a natural force,
everywhere, in everything,
driving all things towards what they must be.
Thirsty plants want rain; their roots search in darkness. Very vivid. âThirstâ is a powerful image for me. We canât help but thirst..beyond a want, a must, evoking an action, Like this poem.
