#poem: The small river, flowing toward the sea What thoughts occupied her mind? What befell her?

If she reached the sea, she became the sea The river is gone, yet here on this riverbed There remains a hollow And a cluster of water within Being absorbed by the earth The tale is that the water is me (2/2) Hooshang Ebtahaj (1928 - 2022)
