Mississippi River
I am the heart of many long lost souls.
I am a river with heart ache and joy.
I am a blur from the highway.
I am berries in the fall.
I am rocks beneath the rushing, cascading water.
I am a river.
I am a comfort to someone having a bad day.
Where the water never stops flowing between the jagged rocks.
I am memories and kindness.
I am lonely in old age.
I am grasping to my ways.
I am a river.
I am Nick’s trophy fish.
I am hidden behind the Pennys store.
I am an old barge under the misty water.
I am hope.
I am a river….
South bound.
South bound.
I wrote this poem in middle school with no foresight of the trip.
