Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
River races to meet the sea

To the Sea

by HarryT

I cross an old battered cement bridge
that spans an eager, running river
racing to join the immense ocean

Thirsty, I hop to the river bank
cup my hands, dip into the stream, bring
crystalline relief to my lips, drink
the still sweet water before it turns
brackish when it churns with the salt sea
