of times long
ago
Persian poets did write
along the Euphrates River
flow
where a shimmering sun
put atop its waters
a glimmering
glow

since these ancient
days
many a poet has scribe verse
beside other river
lays
Shakespeare thinking of an Avon love
who caught his thoughts
in such deeply abiding
ways

Boney M's lyrical
composition
by the Rivers of Babylon
is a modern
adaptationΒ Β 
of the writers eternal feel
for a river streaming
wordage of
inspiration
