river

[ hear the hokey pokey river rime song ]

Listen to poem:
river is serpentine, it's rhyme resonating with sinuous swings, whirls, and swirls reverberating, swinging to and fro, dancing to the hokey pokey, left bank in, right bank out, hinkumbooby river

A snazzy piece for any local river keeper to hum along to, John. I looked at your single stanza and wondered, ‘how will AI make a whole song out of a single stanza? Gotta say, ya had me fooled! Thoroughly enjoyed.
