Answer 1

heya buddy,
here is a poem on rivers

THE RIVER

In my first sleep 
I came to the river 
And looked down 
Through the clear water - 
Only in dream 
Water so pure, 
Laced and undulant 
Lines of flow 
On its rocky bed 
Water of life 
Streaming for ever. 

A house was there 
Beside the river 
And I, arrived, 
An expected guest 
About to explore 
Old gardens and libraries - 
But the car was waiting 
To drive me away. 

One last look 
Into that bright stream - 
Trout there were 
And clear on the bottom 
Monster form 
Of the great crayfish 
That crawls to the moon. 
On its rocky bed 
Living water 
In whorls and ripples 
Flowing unbended. 

There was the car 
To drive me away. 
We crossed the river 
Of living water - 
I might not stay, 
But must return 
By the road too short 
To the waiting day. 

In my second dream 
Pure I was and free 
By the rapid stream, 
My crystal house the sky, 
The pure crystalline sky. 

Into the stream I flung 
A bottle of clear glass 
That twirled and tossed and spun 
In the water's race 
Flashing the morning sun. 

Down that swift river 
I saw it borne away, 
My empty crystal form, 
Exultant saw it caught 
Into the current's spin, 
The flashing water's run.
