Life is like... a river
Mello said:
The imagery of the river flowing forever until the moment one\'s feet touch the sand is a powerful reminder of the transience of life. The idea of some never knowing that their time to leave the river would come so soon is particularly poignant. The poet\'s use of language to describe the desperation of trying to swim back to the edge of the river and the beauty of the water droplets becoming precious and dear is both evocative and thought-provoking. The final question posed by the poet, \"But is it a river?\", leaves the reader with a sense of introspection about the nature of life and its journey. Overall, this is a deeply moving and well-written poem.
