The River - Bill Herrick

[Larry Robinson]

The River

 I will tell you what I know in my blood:

the river does not vanish into night,

but is still there, flowing through dark

to a place that lies beyond: brighter,

greener hills than we can dream of.



Listen! You can hear the river’s song

as it flows over leaf and stone,

in the clear full music of hearts.



Those who love enough soon learn to walk

in rain and remain dry.
