The Water of Life
(Biodiversity, Reciprocity)

Yes, who can doubt it?
They tell me: Water is Life
But what does Water do
without the Air?
But what can the Air
and Water do without the Earth?
But what does the Earth do
without the Fire?
But what does the Fire do
without the Sun?
But what does the Sun do
without the ashes of the Moon?
But what does the Moon do
without the song of Silence?
But what does silence do
without Contemplation?
But what does Contemplation do
without the Word?
But what does the Word do
without the breath of Nature?
But what does Nature do
without the Water of Life? *

* Please, do continue this poem:
In the middle of the last forests
In the early morning dew
On the shores of the dwindling rivers
waterfalls, lakes
Looking at the boats on the horizon
of the sea
and in the polluted air of the day …
On the nocturnal and most delirious
summit of imagination.
