Born in a region
Born in a culture
one need to obey
in the current
has to stay.
Cultures are different, but great
like rivers they flow through
some lived long, some lived short
like rivers long or short
wide or narrow, deep or shallow.
Every soul likes simple and straight
life simple without agony or fight
like river likes to flow straight
but has to flow between rocky mountains
deserts, forests, zig zag even in plains
but erodes loose soils, corrode rocks,
like strong reforming mind do, within its limit!
