When you look to cross the river
Does it down your back give you a shiver
Can you see the current flowing hard
And so will make your crossing marred
Will you swim across the water by yourself
Or will there be others who ensure your health
Perhaps the crossing will go along without hitch
Or as you reach the other side think life is a bitch
There may be more than one river to cross
And in the wilderness you may feel lost
But keeping your head above the water line
Is as important as as making it across in time.
