Rivers , the ancient

 Tall stones fixed like rocks with immortal designs,

With cannons around the side of the walls,

On either side of the alter like quiet domes of ancient built,

With trees of short sizes brimming with half the rocky domes.

The river beside it as silent as dolphin's nest

With ripples of water filtering the salty beaches,

The river stretching till where eye's could meet

The river rising and flowing with enormous ridges and shapes

The faraway skies adding to the beauty of the day,

whereas it is hot with the faraway sun on it's pathway.

when the shadow of the dome shaped figure falls on the river

On the right hand side holding water like a mother holding her baby for the first time.

What comes to one's mind is the grand civilization of man

With strong built stones as artifact on rivers ancient flow of water.

The waters given by God's living in the altar of the heaven above.

The structure of the scene adding to the beauty of man's luck

To be a traitor to steal the beauty of rocks and rivers.

And adding to the starvation of the poor and the needy
