Life is but a river swiftly flowing
amid the shores of a heavenly tide.
Streaming a path forever ongoing,
spawning a pool of abundant life.
Whose wonders are steep with history,
stellar reflections color a river's blue.
Whose depths sink deep with mystery
and conceal the cries of a tortured few.
An underworld extreme in diversity
where lies the struggle of bond and free.
Where equality is met with travesty,
and survival is the burden of the weak.
Whose submergence is often murky,
for not all predators lurk in the dark.
While guided by currents of mercy,
journeying a river's unfathomed heart.
Beneath the waters of a river's stream
ever in awe of aquatic unknowns,
exploring the myth of a river's spring
sampling what delights a river has grown.
And there floating just within sight,
hovers the glow of what's shiny and new.
Entranced by the beauty of its light,
accustomed to the riches of a river's blue. |
