Rock In The River Poem by Shivaprasad KS

Rock In The River

Rating: 4.0


Come at me like a raging bull,
Look into this sea of fire,
Look at the waves crashing,
Do you see an ounce of fear?
Am like an ancient tree,
My Roots go deep,
Where you can't possibly reach,
Try hard as you might,
This wall won't take a breach,
Am a Rock in the river,
I stay put in cold or fever,
The bullets in my chest,
Are the jewels of my armor,
The Trident of Poseidon,
Or God of Sky's Lightning Bolt,
None have the Caliber,
To sink my boat,
Am a Rock in the river,
I stay put in cold or fever,

A Rise of a legend,
That refuses to fall,
Tell the king to use,
All of his force,
Bring all the warriors,
From the far lands where his powers reach,
But beware it's a naive attempt!
Cause this wall is stubborn,
It won't take a breach,
Am a Rock in the river,
And My roots go deep,
Yet my arms are open to the skies,
Where the mystery of infinity lies,
This river ain't enough,
To bring me down alive.
