A Dreaming River Poem by michael Smajda

There once was a river
Who wanted to be
As big as any ocean,
Any lake or sea.
It ask Mother Nature
How this could be so?
Mother Nature, wisely, replied
'If you do this, you will grow.
First, you must get others rivers
Dreaming the same theme,
Freely, to become as one
Thus, making, reality, your dream.
Should all the flowing parties
Decide to be some part of you,
You will, surely, succeed
Be as big as you care to.'
