River

River A river of insults, as eyes stream with tears, Drift of those arguments, that sway to find a chorus, Tireless flow amidst hard rocks, condemned human life, To savour salts of estuary, cheers fail to giggle the bruised soul !

It's with pleasure that I congratulate you on your poem... Did you mean "tickle" instead of "giggle"? "Giggle" doesn't fit.
