THE RIVER OF LIFE

Calm

Serene

Flowing lazily by

Moving along carefree

Suddenly

Your way is blocked

By rocks

By trees

You twist

You turn

You go around and over

Only to find more in your way

The water moves faster

And faster

The rapids grow in intensity, until

It's over

Calm again

No rocks

No trees

No rapids

Just a flat sandy bank

To flow by...
