Maclean's River
Maclean's River
Does the old river still flow and does life
still run through it...
Does the old river still wash away sins

Are rainbows still made overhead...
enticing trout from bed...
Can you still hear from the whispering rocks
if you listen...
Can you still go there...and learn about God
while you're fishin'...
