There Is No River Poem by RIC BASTASA

There Is No River



there is no river
anywhere here on earth
which will
not accommodate the
widest hulls
of our sails

there is no sea
so crowded with vessels
there is always
a space for
whales and
sharks

there is no space that
can't hold a spaceship
there is no cloud
that is ever overfilled
with rain

there is always a space
for us
always a corner to rest
there is always
a star for everyone
to name
to become even our
own
if privacy is a must

why quarrel? why do you
make war on
anybody?

at the tips of the poles
there is always
a resting place
