Celebration

I burst forth From the womb of earth A thin trickle Rain’s foster child With every shower I grew in size I sped through rocks And gnarled roots wide I smoothened stones I caressed grass I paved my way in gushes and splash I frothed and foamed As I jumped and danced I swirled and whirled Around reeds and sand I know not How long I will be So every moment I celebrate me.
