The Sunshine and the River.

I must go places that you'll never see,
The sunshine said to the river,
like hot desert sand, Mongolian temples and whales
that blow far out at sea.

Oh, that may be true, the river laughed back,
but I wander through places that never see you,
through dark bosky glens, down deep, dark ravines,
and through mossy riparian vistas .

Then let's join each other, The sunshine said
and we'll leap down these falls together,
we'll fill that dark pool with bright flecks of foam,
and we'll scatter the forest with glitter!
