River
By Olivia V H
Roots stretching out, longing for something to eat
Waves smoothly meeting the shore
Birds singing happily to each other
The smell of sweet pollen flows in the wind
Clumps of glistening sand
Fireworks of golden wattle everywhere
Flowers dancing in the gentle breeze
Soft, delicate petals like silk
Bees happily buzzing from flower to flower
Salty air fills the senses
Feather-like clouds like beds for rest
While rocks are homes for bugs to sleep
Jagged stones are coarse and brittle
