Over the hill
there's hope of a statue
not made of stone,
but of water.
Today,
it'll flow up,
a fountain,
but tomorrow,
it might be rain.
And it will shape itself,
could be visionary,
through changing colours
and the painful blur.
And, a mountain waterfall
will feed it,
clear and fresh
from glaziers above.
And from a cycle
it will be formed,
formed with ever changing
form giving itself back,
more and more,
and more and more
vivid rainbows
swim from its spray.
