Is a river lonelier than the sea?
Rivers run deep,
say very little,
the sea chatters, but is forever reaching out.
One travels, the other questions.
A river picks its seasons but needs to loop to the sea.
The sea absorbs the sun, but has darkness in its soul.
The river crinkles, cracks, cackles and cries,
The sea jumbles little question marks, forever.
The river gives its shores, for miles.
The sea stretches infinite into the horizons.
Seeking, searching, chortling, living,
Both show a way, but never stop.
Ah, I know.
A river is a child,
Alone, but not lonely.
And the sea is a hermit,
Lonely but never alone.
And both live on,
Full, but forever thirsty.
Full, but forever thirsty...
