The Klamath

unfettered on its way to the sea bathing the land with all its riches from its source to the ocean where it spends itself flowing wild and free from the beginning of time the fish, the bear, and the otter's place native people's mother The Klamath
The Klamath River is located in northern Calfornia ..a wild river , beautiful, and on of my favorite places on earth.

Dear BG, I can just imagine the fish, bear and others in the Klamath River. Perhaps this is where you go fly fishing? Excellent poem. Congratulations on your win! Love, Carolyn
