This poem was inspired by Sam Harty's poem below.
I had not heard of this form of poetry before, but when I read Sam's poem, I thought I must give it a go. Thanks for the inspiration Sam.

A river flows with sounds of content
Bubbling energy not yet spent
Relentlessly you travel
To places yet not seen
Nowhere I have been
Give me your strength
Peace of mind
Guide me
Now
