Trinity
Life, chilled and hardened
This crystalline entity
Creeps in the mountains

Serpent descending
Carving a sinuous path
Into the Delta
=
The spirit ascends
Occupying the heavens
To rain Life below
What’s up Steemians? This is a piece I wrote in reply to another short poem challenge. The three stanzas are haikus...or haiku (whichever is correct….I think it’s haiku). Each one is made to represent some aspect of water in its three states. This substance is truly fascinating both for its unique chemical makeup and its importance to basically all life. In its makeup, I see a divine hand in play. I tried to embed that into the piece. The title was meant to have a double meaning with an allusion to God as well as a nod to water’s three states. It’s truly crazy when you think about all the crazy aspects of water. Everything from Negative Thermal Expansion to Supercritical Steam makes water an interesting subject from which we can learn a great deal.
