Rivers Flow to the Ocean<\/p>\n
Rivers.
\nIt flows downstream.
\nVery near the end of the line.
\nEvery tributary feeds from the source,
\nRacing along, you can’t slow the course.
\nSo close to the battle we can almost taste it.<\/p>\n
Front the lower level there was a stirring.
\nLeft of the dish we saw a signal
\nOur time had come and we left to mating.
\nWith brilliant wings all marked with pigments,<\/p>\n
They were green, yellow and brown
\non back and the crown.<\/p>\n
The courses that we flew,
\nheralded the war cries of the few and many,
\neveryone did their part.<\/p>\n
One said they saw us on the radar.
\nCause doppler had picked us up that day.
\nEveryone was happy when we smelled the salt
\nand felt the sand. We knew we were home.
\nNow, you know the rest of the story.<\/p>\n
Hour twenty one, 5 am
\nRivers Flow to the Ocean
\n(form Acrostic\/Free Verse)
\nCharlie the Mayfly.<\/p>\n
