Flint River

Ground seepage
A small start mere drainage
Grows to a mighty river rushing
Flowing some three-hundred-fourty-four miles a rushing
From Atlanta to the Gulf beauty accenting
Through ragged Spewell Bluff it slithers
Filled with  fresh rain water
Flint River

Andrea Dietrich Date: 6/15/2014 1:02:00 AM Lines two and four were a bit off on syllable count; otherwise I'd have scored this higher, Sara. I really like it. Congrats in my contest. Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 6/12/2014 4:49:00 PM Wow, you really brought this river to life in your poem, Sara. I hadn't even heard of the Flint River before now, so I'll have to see if there are some photos online. Love the way the river starts out as "mere drainage" but carries rain water all the way from Atlanta to the Gulf. Awesome entry for Andrea's contest! Love, Carolyn Login to Reply
