Silent and obscure, Creeping under the bush, Growing, Gathering force, Cutting its own path Seeping through the barriers Advancing Battling the rocks, Roaring down the precipices, Flooding the valleys Pushing aside the banks Fuming, foaming, panting, Pawing in the darkness Whirling in whirlpools, Bogged down in the marshes, For a while overwhelmed, Getting up in the next, Running and running Till, in the end, Dissolving into the sea of time.
