The river rides

the river rides

Itself in swirly foam 
Rushing rapid trying trying

Trying to get home
Does not pause

for deer or man or sun which
Tries to climb its banks
Does not pause

for heaven blue to hitch a ride 
Upon its flanks
it is indeed a thing possessed

jubilant and
All its own

It aks of no god to assist
its own force all

It's ever known.

A metaphor, a dream, imagination, or a walk along the river,
this is beautifully written.
Warm wishes,   B
