The River

The river
The unlimited water
The beauty of nature
Dark in the night, blue in the day but am colourless
How well I have been shaped
How soft I have been created
Bigger than water but smaller in quantity
I conduce smaller things like pin
but carry bigger things like ferry
I Am welcoming
I create power but reject power
The river is my name
Those that befriend me cross me
Those who wish to know me
learn to play with me in joy
Some hate me but cannot do without me
At the comfort of my home, people despise coming closer
But I end up in every home in smaller quantity
Plants cannot do without me
Man cannot do without me
Fishes cannot do without me
I am a home for others a help to others for survival
So please do not destroy me
