Sit By the River
I love to sit by the river and watch it flowing by.
I feel so blest to be a witness to its lullaby.
If it's quiet and I pay attention,
I can hear its song,
As it blends with the chirps of the birds
As they celebrate all day long
The simple joy of being alive
And feeling like they belong.
The River is My Walking Partner
The river is my walking partner;
She flows along beside me everyday.
She keeps me company,
And she doesn't get in the way.
She helps me to keep a steady pace
As I walk along,
And the lovely way she moves
Inspires me with a song
Giving thanks to Mother Earth
For making me feel like I belong.
