RIVER

RIVER

River ever so beautiful

Running down stream

Oh how it sparkles

Wonders can be found

But some rivers are brown

So deadly

Trash floats in it

With impunity

Oh such a tragedy

Important message to the present....

[Stella]

Wonderful poem! I liked how the beginning shows us the beauty of rivers while the second part shows us the violent and dangerous side.

[Marie Harrison]

I like the contrasts
of rivers in this poem.
