the river and the tree.

can a tree help falling in love with a river?

she delivers the essence of life, day and night


and he never meets the same one twice, but likes when she passes by and at night,

when the tide is high, she explores the ridges her sister invites her to witness in twilight


moonlight, invites their love into union before dawn,

and they realize, they'll always be reaching for one another


some never fall enough to reach up, but at least they've found something to reach for.
