A River Calls

A River Calls

To the Fishermen

Who hunt in resistant streams

With the incessant chance to then

Placate needs in Earth\'s lifeblood seams

 

A River Calls

To the Sailors

Who churn, row and infinitely fight

The winds who will forever be their jailers

Hardships being masked with forceful delight

 

A River Calls

To the Child

Who pierces the banks with ignorant awe and a smile

Letting playful demeanor fail to beguile

Monsters whose vastness rivals the Nile

 

A River Calls

To a simple Passerby

Placating hardships due to a monsters persistence

Entering a flowing tomb below the sky

To unbound from their ordered existence
