River Fest

 

From a tiny little boat to the sturdy tall ship
there are all kinds who must make this trip
There was something that we all knew…
the ride on the river is only as good as the crew
We are…it is true…of us...
only as good as those we trust
Travellers...we are…journeying on the river of time
…camped here on the banks to wine and dine
Our laughter and music still lifts
and echoes off the shear tall cliffs
so content we are...still on the shore
oblivious all…to the echoing roar
of the still to be navigated rapids below
Beyond the bend…raging waters do flow

How many of us will ride safely through those rapids…and go
to our reward waiting on the serene reflecting pools below
Only those apt sailors…picking their crews carefully…will know
