In silent motion
and constant flow
forward in notion
a river shall grow

So peaceful, tranquil
'til comes a rise
the ground finds fill
and the bottom lies

Direction so ends
another churn
when a river bends
causing life to turn

create an addiction .... share a smile!!

yes, this is a

BRAVO!!!

the rhythm and feel of this captures the flow of a river bending to and fro

just as life

enoyed!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
