In the river's gentle flow,
I find lessons to grow.
Like the water, life moves fast,
Yet, patience is the path to last.
Like the river's twists and turns,
Life's journey has its own concerns.
But with each bend, a new view's born,
Teaching us to adapt and transform.
The river's depth is hard to gauge,
Just like the strength of the human age.
It's in the darkness that we find,
The power to rise, like the river's design.
Like the river's constant flow,
We must keep moving, as life grows.
For in its waters, we see the grace,
Of perseverance in every place.
Just as the river nourishes the land,
Our kindness can heal a stranger's hand.
Like the river's beauty, wild and free,
Our true selves shine when we're being me.
The river's wisdom teaches us all,
To flow with life, through rise and fall.
To bend, to adapt, to persevere,
And in our depths, our strength to retrieve.
Like the river's source, high up above,
Our dreams and goals are born of love.
Like the river's mouth, where it meets the sea,
Our journeys merge with destiny.
Like the river's currents, strong and weak,
Our choices shape our unique seek.
Like the river's banks, where roots take hold,
Our values anchor us, young and old.
Like the river's ripples, far and wide,
Our actions touch lives, side by side.
Like the river's reflections, clear and bright,
Our true selves shine, in the light of night.
