River Quest

Like a nomadic soul, a river embarks on
an arduous journey seeking its sanctuary,
Enraptured and etching a serpentine path
writhing and squirming like an enchantress
beckoning one and all the weary souls to
quench their thirst from her refreshing sap
before it obliterates forever its sole identity
and coalesced into the vast bosom of the sea.
