My Life, a river

My Life, a river

If my life is like a river, why does it forget the Source?
If my river flows toward the Ocean, shall I select its wanderings?

Shall the burbling spring become a stagnant marsh?
Shall the flowing, living life become a dry creek bed?

Will the river follow grace's path or meander in its own?
Will it plunge and change as waterfall, or pool into a lake?

May it reach the ocean Source in mingled, roaring joy.
Returned: no pantheistic swirl, just Source-exalting thrill.
Purified: never again a cesspool or brackish puddle. 
Energized: receiving, sharing, outpouring Sourced life.
