RIVER FLOWS

      "River is just ready to flow,
     may be fast or may be slow :
     Normal water flow to carry
     aims to reach an estuary.
      
      "Natural to meet the sea  
      We are accustomed to see.                          
      Non -stop runs ! Then and then ?  
     Otherwise, what to happen ?"
 
      "River runs, rushes at ease 
       not forever as it seems.
       "Okay ! That's right, whatever !
        Then, what's it's behaviour? "
        
    ‘" It mixes with the  ocean.
        after unique unison."
     " May I ask , then and then  ?"
       "You are asking just in vain . "
                                  
       " There's no end in endeavour !
        It tries to run forever."
        Non-stop ceaseless river goes
        Continuous as it flows."
         
       " So ! River is too clever.
         Great wonder for a river ."
        " River may flow in bluster  
          or dry up on disaster."

        " Yet, Question : Forevermore ?"
        " River has got highest score.
          Forever none can exist.
           Always fair chance to extinct. "
