Love River

The Bottom Line A poem dedicated to all sweethearts and lovers on Valentine's Day!

What is the Earth
its lands and forests
its hills and vales
without the rivers

the Nile
the Euphrates
the Yangtze

the Rhine and the Seine
the Amazon
the Mississippi and Colorado

all rivers of life
snaking water wonders
for without them

earth becomes lifeless
arid and desolate
like Mars and the moon

and like manner
the world without love
is existence without feelings

without heart and soul
akin to the world of robots
akin to flowers without colors

without aroma and fragrance
without sweet joy of beholding
and adoration

and love is like a river
flowing silent and deep
its waters rushing strong

weaving through rocks and hills
of life's obstacles and sorrows
giving the true essence of life

the River of Love
that gives life and joys
and hope and a reason to live

that Love River!
