River Wind

The riverbed is soft, and warmed by the day’s sun. Your feet are submerged in the cool water and you trace the outlines of stones with your toes. The current pushes the small waves against the shoreline. The wind sweeps across your body carrying with it the fragrance of the forest. Birds fly overhead and land across the river to drink water. A river is a natural watercourse usually freshwater flowing towards an ocean a lake, a sea, or another river. In a few cases, a river simply flows into the ground or dries up completely at the end of its course, and does not reach another body of water. Small rivers may be called by several other names, including stream creek, brook, rivulet, and rill.
