Flow River Flow

Flow River flow 
Flow from the serene mountain tops
Amid the lush green trees or barren rocks
We know you will never stop
While grinding those stubborn rocks
Which always tries to hinder your flows
As obstacles like rocks tries to stop our life
But confidence and our faith breaks them and grinds them fast 

Flow River flow 
And never wait to grind them in pieces
Always continue your non stop watch
To provide us nectar like water and life
Not only to humans, but to the whole world lot
Including the fields, forests and plants
Without forgetting animals, birds and every single insects
Which are your darling children, you always give us a lesson 
Not to get tired like a River and continue our strife
Till our journey ultimately get mingled and lost 
In the vast sea of life

Ravindra

Hi friend! I thought perhaps you might do me the honor of entering my Animal spirit guardian contest? It would be nice to have input from your part of the world. What animal spirit do you feel watch over you? Write me a nice free verse. I have mated owls and wolves very handy for a single woman I guarded night & days 360 degrees too! From the air and on the ground.
