The river winds through vale and glade

Its song a hymn both bright and staid

It carries whispers soft and low

Of lives its touched of hearts that grow

Each current bends each ripple sings

A melody of transient things

Though swift its flow it always gives

A lesson clear: to drift is to live

Its waters kiss both stone and sand

A bond unbroken hand in hand

It shows that every course though wild

Will find its sea serene and mild

So trust the rivers ceaseless flight

Through morning haze and starless night

For every stream no matter small

Holds all of life within its call
