Alone on the riverbank,
In the sunset breeze,
I felt unloved.
Just then the evening dawned.
Emerged the tranquil moon
And the silvery ripples said,
‘It can't be'.
I dipped into the silence
The river poured in me.
The moon emerged full.
It said, ‘you are not unloved'
‘There's always someone for you'.
At peace with the river,
I took the last boat home.
