I wonder if the river gets tired? <br />It runs and runs but never stops, <br />It rushes onward toward the sea, <br />Foaming, Swirling, round the rocks. <br /> <br />I guess it never actually halts. <br />So therefore it mustn’t be tired, <br />Because if it were, it surely would rest, <br />It only runs past to be admired. <br /> <br />So rivers never do get tired, <br />Though lazy, sometimes yes, <br />When rain isn’t doing her part, <br />Or isn’t giving her best. <br /> <br />But when the rain is feeling well, <br />And fills the river true <br />The river rushes, madder still. <br />To get to the ocean blue.<br /><br />>Starr Williams
