OP OK. The "purling river" has got me thinking. Could we construct here a group of water terms that strictly describe (or even leniently describe) the movement of water, whether terms that are actually in the dictionary (as "purling" is for movement of water) or poetic--newly created or otherwise? (What? Oldly creative? What a thought!) All bodies of water would be perfectly acceptable here, from storm in a teacup to the waters in the Sky.
I'll start by repeating what we learned on the Purling thread and then move (or not, as is the case below) to something different. There must be a lot of terms in between and, also, extended outwardly in opposite directions-three- four- five- six-dimensional---who cares.
1. purling river
2. stagnant water
Boat regards,
