‘river flows fast or slow. sun rays flash on dancing waves, but river stops never, running forever. 'after forever, what’s its behavior?’ 'it meets the sea, as we can see.’ 'whatever? then and then? what to happen?’ ‘river runs at ease forever, as it is.’ ' okay! whatever ! after forever?’ ‘it mixes with ocean. unique unison.’ ‘then and then?’ ‘asking in vain. no end in endeavor. river runs forever. river flows and flows, ceaseless goes. too clever, runs forever.’ ‘river may flow in bluster or dry up on disaster. otherwise, river runs forever, also, after forever.'

This was a lovely contrast. Your words to me mimicked the flow of water beautifully. Congrats on your wonderful writing!
