Under the bright blue sky
Lays a bright blue river.
The river water is cool, crisp, and clear.
The water sparkles under the sun, catching the rays in its flailing arms.
Waves build bigger as they crash into corners.
Fast then faster rushing on by.
Fish flip and flop about.
Away is carried the water.
Away is carried the world.

I hope people see the beauty I try to convey about the river through the poem.
