Rapids
LI: To identify the rhyme in the poem
At the early day of spring
Beyond forest where nightingale will sing
Beyond castle of a ghost of forest king
The great river started as a lively spring
The river in tributaries grew
Pushing it way through
Carving canyons and valleys too
So strong on very canvas of earth it drew
But soon this awesome run turns into mild jog
The river winds disappearing somewhere in a fogIt turns into a large bog
Barely strong enough to push a log
The swamp is vital to ecology
And it’s secretive and full of majestyBut I miss river’s intensity
On my soul it left enchantment and history
I admire its beauty
As I watch I feel something eerie
And I think I hope to use that history
To change the very momentum of chaos and biology
Beyond forest where nightingale will sing
Beyond castle of a ghost of forest king
The great river started as a lively spring
The river in tributaries grew
Pushing it way through
Carving canyons and valleys too
So strong on very canvas of earth it drew
But soon this awesome run turns into mild jog
The river winds disappearing somewhere in a fogIt turns into a large bog
Barely strong enough to push a log
The swamp is vital to ecology
And it’s secretive and full of majestyBut I miss river’s intensity
On my soul it left enchantment and history
I admire its beauty
As I watch I feel something eerie
And I think I hope to use that history
To change the very momentum of chaos and biology
