The Water Dragon has not graced our year since 1952
Reappearing to end Sixty years of misfortune
Pulling his Yang head out from deep in the sea
The fireworks are here for more than just the New Year’s celebration
In a Yang year – Water flows – Idea’s flow
Love flows – Creativity flows
Add to that the magical, mystical qualities of the Water Draon and
Prosperity dares to raise a specter of hope
Over those who have been without it for so long
Power lies in service to the greater good
We will be called to face our destinies
And step effortlessly into them
Taking a deep look at our reflections
Seeing what sages have seen for centuries
A fierce determination
To turn the tide of fortune
Fireworks over water
Creativity goes viral
Prosperity blossoms
Everyone is in love

HUGGGGGGGGGG
You may not know
the power I find here ~ the untapped
reservoirs of inspiration
beneath the feet I read in.
The water dragon has been the beast
beside & within me since childhood
in the river.
Thank you.
With love,
We all need better. all of us...

Thank you for your poem.
happy new year to you and all the blessing there is on the horizon for you.
Did you know that we live in the age of Aquarius?
Lovely coincidence,not only the joining of water/fire, but also East/West.
Let's join hands in love and peace,all of us.
Rated for your inspiring words.
our bodies long frozen,
imprisoned in a crystal pentagon,
will be released
the Water Dragon rises and
our souls, which for 60 kalpas
passed from mortal to mortal,
will re-unite
the Water Dragon rises and
our souls will re-unite with our
liberated bodies,
liberated from want
the Water Dragon rises and
the spark that is existence
will be held for a year
by neither right or force
the Water Dragon rises and
the charade of purity formed
to cover the crime of greed
will fade under the light of liberation
the Water Dragon rises and
will soon descend;
the unbearable having lessened for many
by the gift of total freedom.
note:
dear RomanticPoetess,
how nice to age along with you!
blessings,

And step effortlessly into them, you say? I say:
About damn time my destiny was made known unto me!
Whatever it be! I shall smoothly satisfy it: and bid farewell to
senseless self-aggrandizing acts of egoic puffery. I hope this
water dragon “Pulling his Yang head out from deep in the sea”
lives up to his cosmic duty as bright positive masculine principle…
nothing against yin, I assure you, but too much shady yin
can bedevil a seeker, especially one like me who loves
to stare into the sun (against his mother’s warnings).
Re. “Seeing what sages have seen for centuries”…it usually amounts to
“Taking a deep look at our reflections”….
Reminds me of Indra’s Net,
Or Alfred North Whitehead’s philosophy…
“the artificer has hung a single glittering jewel in each "eye" of the net,
and since the net itself is infinite in dimension
, the jewels are infinite in number.
There hang the jewels,
In one of these , we will discover that in its polished surface
there are reflected all the other jewels in the net,
infinite in number.
Not only that, but each of the jewels reflected in this one jewel
is also reflecting all the other jewels,
so that there is an infinite reflecting process occurring.[7]”
thus sums up our cosmos.
Bring on the Yang!

Love, sword, dragon.
Did I write the word "love" too few times in this comment?
I hope not!
