A RIVER
RUNS THROUGH IT
Next time you are near a river
take the time to stick your hand
into the water and
feel the flow,
feel the history, feel the mystery,
of that river - big or small - feel
the implications of time and the
river, time and all the upstream
and downstream of that river.
In my life, I’ve been blessed to
live on the banks and near the
edge of a lot of water and each
has had an impact on my life:
the Narrows near Brooklyn, Lake Erie,
the Patapsco, the Hudson, the East River,
Tobyhanna - the stream, Spa Creek,
Lake Oconomowoc, and the Atlantic.
