Life Renewed

The river, the giver of life The river, the giver of time as we know it Volumes of history on my shelves Offer dark pictures when one delves into the records of the past So I'll watch, the river, the giver as it brings life to us all The river, the giver brining home peace The river, the giver as it flows past our home the river , the giver make it your own

Life is constantly flowing and changing like the river that you spoke of. Both also carve a history and it is up to us to be a part of it... I enjoyed your beautiful poem, Matthew. Very well written and rhymed!

i agree with SKAT. What's more, you'll see history as it is being made, for rivers, in this case, have always provided a source of living for some, and a way to travel for others. A thought inspiring read. Kim
