The bird by the river
Does not ask ‘why was I born?’
The bird by the river
She sings HER song.
The tree by the river
Asks not ‘what shall I do?’
The tree by the river
She blossoms and blooms.
The stones by the river
Ask not ‘wherefore or why?’
The stones by the river
Sit still and sigh.
The river
She sighs,
She dances,
She sings.
The river lets
Each moment
Give her wings.
