River Of Love

Just as the river starts as a tiny little spring,

just as it flows through mountains, valleys and towns,

just as it tackles every bend, to merge with the expanding ocean,

love is like a river. Just let it flow.


Just as the river brings fertility to its banks,

just as it irrigates the gardens of flower and food,

just as it brings completion to life and its circle,

love is like a river. Just let it flow.


Just as the river flows in one direction only,

just as it never turns back on its course,

just as it meanders through every natural force,

love is like a river. Just let it flow.


Just as the river moves with force, grace or peace,

just as it makes you stop, wonder and gasp,

just as it helps people cross distance with ease,

love is like a river. Just let it flow.


Just as the river ends famine and drought,

just as it cleanses the spirits of the dead,

just as it rejuvenates our body, mind and soul,

love is like a river. Just let it flow.
