Flowing

My tides rise and fall.
Still water, mumbling wave, current and torrent
They're the substance of my existence.
From source to mouth, steadily moving through my course
Creating canyons and waterfalls, lakes and gorges
Some days I feel blue
Other days I feel like Caño Cristales.
For what it's worth, I'm here to stay
To give and receive, to fall and rise
I am not Osun, but my life is the way of the river.
