Just One Claim

Rivers run, It is fun, Not reverse. Like lovers, Ahead, they Run – all day, Murmuring – Whispering To sun and Moon, and land On their gains When it rains. Bemoaning, Bewailing, Along, they Run – their way Just to see And to be With the sea Feeling free, Where life ends, With no bends – With one name, And one claim.
