The imagery is soothing.

William Dotani Feb 28, 2009, 12:37am EST

I am not suggesting, but just giving a thought. What if your last line was just 'rivers'? Not sure if this would fit, but the Japanese literature in me sort of wants this poem to be a perfect circle.

The rivers flowing, could not be filled again without the rain falling to restore mother natures balance. Life is weights and measures. You said all this is just a few words.
