12 Haiku: Water

By Noah Rapinan

Free
Pondering on its own
Flowing

Cold
Temperatures declining
Snow

Hot
Temperatures rising
Into steam

Continuous
Reflections of light
One the surface

Deep
Dirty and green
Dense

Shallow
Transparent body
White sand

Salty
Fishes swarming
Under

Flows
On and on
Unstoppable

Still
Formation
Of any kind

Rehydration
To the body’s
Organs

Goes up
Whole different state
Comes down

Runs
In and out
Freely
