When I grow up I want to be a river a flow of ease clear and welcoming reflecting forest green. I want to feel the slide and shine over pebbles smooth and freely wandering down the mountainside no obstacles only friends. © Ali Grimshaw 2021 Day 12 of Na/GloPoWriMo. I went rouge with my urge for freedom and didn't follow the prompt.

Ann,
I am so glad to hear this this poem brought a postivite lift to your day. We can all use some sunshine words after last year.
Sending you wishes for wellness.

Chere,
Somehow I am not surprised to hear that this spoke to you. You are doing just that right now. You are living as a river wild and free.
Thanks for this reflection. I look forward to the day when I can hug you.
Travel safe and make each day count.

We have fallen in love with a place by a river in France and have been yearning to return. Covid restrictions have rather stymied our plans. Your piece reminded me of the natural beauty of the hamlet of Brivezac.

I miss traveling too. There are so many beautiful places in the world. If my poem brings back a happy river memory for you then I feel the words were used well. Thanks for sharing.
