RIVERS JOURNEY

 

 

THE JOURNEY IS LONG

FOR THE RIVER

FROM THE MOUNTAIN

TO THE SEA

AT TIMES THE FLOW

CEASES WAITING

FOR ANOTHER RAIN

ANOTHER MELTING OF

THE SNOW

MOVING IT CLOSER TO

ITS DESTINATION

 

 

AS IT CRASHES OVER

ROCKS AND ROARS UNDER

BRIDGES RUSHING FORWARD

CARRYING ALL BEFORE IT

WHITE FOAM APPEARS

TO GIVE A LOOK OF CALMNESS

 

 

BOUNCING ALONG ON

THE SURFACE LOOKING

TO THE END OF ITS

JOURNEY

THE FOAM IS SUDDENLY

STRUCK BY A STRONG

WIND BLOWING IT BACK

UP STREAM

TO ONCE AGAIN BEGIN

ITS NEVER ENDING JOURNEY
