Rivers of ink run through my pen,
chasing epiphany round the bend.

Premium Member Grand Ancient Rivers
Flow mighty rivers, what all have you seen
Rise and fall of empires, string of storied kings
As veins carry blood, you give Earth its life
Carving the landscape as if done by a knife
Ancient, so ancient, much older than man
Incredible show of Gods mighty hand
Oh Nile and...

It's said joy is like a river
that runs just where it will.
But sorrow is a river too
and it runs deeper still.

For times of joy are welcome
and for them we give thanks.
While sorrow cuts right to the soul
and overflows its banks.

Seeds of joy are raindrops
that...

Rivers of Time
Like rivers of time / our lives drift by /
as seasons / providing  the trees / 
acquire soft, green leaves / and then in time / 
turning red and golden / shed their leaves.

Travelers in time are all / like a wind 
sweeping across...

Premium Member Meandering Rivers, Streams and Burns
Meandering rivers, streams and burns
Zig zagging, flowing in contour turns

Sparkling waters as pure as can be
Flow through the glens and down to the seas

Much life is found in these translucent waters
Species of fish, and delightful otters

 

Along these rivers, streams and burns
Grow many grasses, trees...

Two Rivers

Stark naked she slowly shrivelled her exposed vacant mind

shed dry viscous tears and filled the empty river in vain

Exhausted petrified her and the stream her inner self 

bared to rugged contraction with one final squeeze flooded

the truth that she floated on sediment nevertheless

The Rivers Edge
While sitting near the rivers edge
Enveloped in another tale 
Caught off guard by raw beauty 
Setting my pen off to set sail

As the sun glistens off the river
My reflection distorted above
Surrounded by natures jewels 
Enchanted by what I love

Bavila Rivers Joined
when you reach 
two bavila rivers 
"Mugela and Mugadja "which 
were joined together 
to become Kalimabenge.
You witness how bavila 
people always wish
to live in peace with other
nations on their 
Land....

Scarlett Rivers
Scarlet Rivers--by David Lustrup 2016


if you saw my heart tonight
you wouldn't recognize it
trodden trampled torn apart
before i realized it

shredded hanging bleeding
tendons torn and tattered
you were everything to me
you were all that mattered

and now im drowning in this blackness
circling the drain im going down
where is the...

The river pours itself down lakes and streams;
along its way, collecting its baubles;
drift wood, rocks, feathers and leaves for its scrapbook.

  It likes to wax philosophical in the moonlights rays; 
It’s voice nearly silent, for the duration.  
That’s when the night choir sings...
