I just want to reiterate that you've done an excellent job with this poem. Congratualtions, and keep writing!

The eternity of water, its vastness like memories. It heals us, protects us, gives us life. Not just sustenance, but "new water" that frees us from the past. I also like how all of the elements are connected through your experience of them, beginning with "Here I..." It's so important that we experience nature in all of its attributes: power, life, wisdom, beauty. You've done a good job capturing them in these four poems. Good work!

This is very fluid in its rhyme and conveys water quite splendidly. "In liquid bend and blur" That was a great line.

I'm going to have to say this is quite good. I like the way you've made the poem flow, while maintaining a rhyme scheme, and at the same time it still makes sense and maintains a "gentle, poetic" quality. This can be hard to do at times with rhymed poem...especially with this pattern. Your choice of words and phrases also has painted a picture and feeling that I think many can relate to. Excellent job! ...one of the better poems on this site.
