River of Resilience

On the river's breast, a sea of souls, Each paddle a heartbeat, each stroke a song. A symphony of unity, a dance of defiance, Where water mirrors the sky's eternal gaze. Beneath the bridge, a testament to time, The city's pulse beats in unison with the waves. Here, in the heart of the urban sprawl, A moment of peace, a shared breath of hope. Each canoeist, a fragment of the whole, Together forming a tapestry of strength. The river flows, a living, breathing entity, Carrying the dreams of those who dare to dream. In this fleeting moment, we find ourselves, Connected by the currents of our shared humanity.
