Thames! Beautiful Thames! <br />Thames River arises at Gloucestershire, <br />flows thro' London, the capital of U.K; <br /> <br />Thames River is tidal in London <br />With a rise and fall of 7 meters, <br />The river is fed by more than 20 tributaries; <br /> <br />The Thames River which flows alongside <br />several other towns and cities - <br />Oxford, Reading, Henley-on-Thames, <br />Windsor, Kingston upon Thames and Richmond - <br />is beautiful; <br /> <br />Thames River has a total length of 215 mile, <br />River banks on either side are beautiful, <br />Pavement strolling stretch on either side <br />is beautiful; <br /> <br />Boats sailing in Thames river are beautiful, <br />Young women who sail in the boats are beautiful, <br />White swan pairs' which swim in the river are beautiful; <br /> <br />Watching swans from the bridge, <br />- which spans Reading and Caversham - <br />somersaulting to catch the fish <br />is still more exciting and beautiful! <br />Thames! Beautiful Thames!<br /><br />Dr.V.K. Kanniappan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/thames-beautiful-thames/
