Beautiful River Poem by Dr Shamim Ali

Oh beautiful river, with your sparkling flow
You are a symbol of radiance, aglow
In loveliness, your heart is laid bare
A remarkable piece of art, beyond compare

Within your waves, a beauty doth reside
Glistening and trembling, a sight to confide
The curves of your stream, so divine
Remind me of gaits, a graceful line

An image of deities, you resemble true
Crystal water reflecting hearts anew
With all the innermost core of your being
Concealed by rays of optimism, unseeing

Oh beautiful river, your beauty astounds
A sight to behold, in your twists and turns abound
May your radiance continue to shine bright
A symbol of loveliness, a dazzling sight
