The River 2

The document describes the different characteristics and behaviors of a river through a series of short poems and descriptions. The river is constantly moving and wandering, twisting and turning as it flows through valleys and hills. It also collects and buries treasures in its waters. While the river can sound peaceful like a baby, it is also powerful and destructive, capable of swallowing both trees and people.

The River’s a wanderer,

A nomad, a tramp,
He doesn’t choose one place
To set up his camp

The River’s a winder,


Through valley and hill
He twists and he turns,
He just cannot be still
The River’s a hoarder,
And he buries down deep
Those little treasures
That he wants to keep.

The River’s a baby,


He gurgles and hums,
And sounds like he’s happily
Sucking his thumbs.
The River’s a singer,
As he dances along,
The countryside echoes
The notes of his songs.

The River’s a monster,


Hungry and vexed,
He’s gobbled up trees
And he’ll swallow you next.
The river water flows from
one place to place. It never
stays in one spot.

The river winds through


hills and valleys. It moves all
the time.

Many things may be buried


in the river waters or the silt
in the river bed
The river may sound like a
baby gurgling its thumb.

The river makes beautiful


sounds like a song. The
sight of the river waters
flowing along can be a very
pretty sight.

The river can also be


dangerous and destructive
to trees and also man.
