Life's River - September 13, 2000
 
A frail grasp 
is all that we have
on this river 
that we call life --
clinging
by the meanest of hopes
onto those
that would have
left our hand
had we 
forsaken ourselves
to the torrential
flow.
 
Held closely,
we seize upon
hope, love and laughter
as the support
as we careen
wildly 
down the river.
