Surprised

What supports 
the support 
of life?
The soft murmur 
of the flowing water
or the hard
riverbed smoothened
by flows of centuries?
It's hard to tell.
The strong pillars 
of this edifice
come from the earth
that was scented
by the petals
of the faded flowers.
The spirit that toiled
to make the edifice
was enlivened by
the fragrance of beauty.
What supports life
is the life that lives 
in the life.
