In the Desert, I am Water

I am a River.

From the begining I have been.
Full and raging and strong.
Till the end I will be as I am, constant and dynamic.
I am perpetual motion.
I am nurturing.
I am deep and cold as the chill in winter.
I am shallow and vain as Narcisuss.
I am silent as the grave of the hopeless, keeping the secrets that they carry.
I am stentorian in determination so you will know who I am.
I war against obstacles with a power that makes you tremble.
I have carried you tenderly in your peaceful dreams of rest.
I am wise in my direction and ignorant of my course.
Life rides the currents of my heart and I sigh.

I am a River.
