River Challenge

flowing together 
  licking dew drops
     exchanging warmth
         melting into jelly, yet
            unsatiated we remain.
        hurtling down slopes
     into a secret valley
  rushing to unite,
slip, gush, hold tight.
Negotiating riverine
   meandering curves
    union becomes serene
          before surrender, into 
              an ocean, of ecstatic joy.
