Saved by a Sandbar

I’ve been caught up in the river of life,
Moving faster as I roll downstream,
And at the rapids I fall into whirlpools
Which spin me in different directions.
I clutch onto a large log past the rapids,
So I can have a chance to breath, and
Suddenly I stop as the log jams on a
Large sandbar rising above the water.
I climb the log to the wet sand with
The rain and winds against my skin.
Soon the storm is over and the
River’s edge recedes to near normal.
A day after landing on the sandbar,
I walk on the log to the shore where
I find refuge in the woods and roads
That run through it to my home.
Later that year, I returned to the
River and that sandbar was gone.
