This one gave me a lot to think about. At first glance you give us a very positive lesson. That even after we are long gone, like that river, there is a trace of us left in this world, that If we live our life right there will be effects of our actions long after we've passed, giving us some kind of immortality. That felt very encouraging. There is another side to this poem too though, a sadder one. It reminded me that even if we ever get to be a mighty river someday, after enough time we will still dry out, that no matter how bold and world changing our lives were one day there will only be a trace of us left, if even that. We are given so little time, and it is easy to waste it, this poem in a way reminds the reader to live the life we have right. Great work BlueGlow!
