The Words in the River


In times of trouble

the river flows beside me

Comforts me, soothes me

Leads me to exicting places

 

The river carries words

and fits them together

in little crevices by the rocks

These words create poetry.

 

One day I was traveling

alongside this river

I picked up these words,

and never looked back
