Where the River Goes

Twisting and turning
Touching every green riverbank
Slowly she caresses with sweet gentleness
Hush now just listen
She has a story to tell
Of places she's been to
People she's met
Never over staying her welcome
She courageously pushes
on
Taking fond memories with her
As she slowly glides along
Always running, nurishing each
environment she touches
Laughing and dancing
On earths beautifully painted canvas

Lovely image of a river flowing on its course.
