The River Keeps Coming

the-river-keeps-comingAt the River Clarion (final stanza)
by Mary Oliver

7.

And still, pressed deep into my mind,
the river
keeps coming, touching me, passing
by on its
long journey, its pale, infallible
voice
singing.

I’m leaving this afternoon for Anushka’s weekend retreat in KC. I’ll post highlights on Monday. Stay tuned.
