Come sit by the river and drink from its fountain -

the river of dreams at the foot of the mountain,.

with that fountain of knowledge formed by the years

spilling over and over its watery tears.

 

Come lay by the river - dream of the days

when life was easy and full of games.

Close your eyes and slowly drift and flow

as you follow the river wherever it goes.

 

Come each day to the river - but come alone -

for this place of dreams is somewhere you own,

yours for the taking - your own small space

by the river and its healing place.
