Cross Over!

Rivers and their tributaries -
branch out yet stay connected.

As you dive in from one end
and yearn to reach the other,
sometimes,
if not all the time,
you don't want to achieve what you set out to -
you'd rather
swim, float, wiggle,
butt in and out of water,
rest on some (nearby) rocky terrain
before making your way right back in.

Sometimes,
if not all the time,
its mighty hard to let go of
the road
once you reach the destination.
