You have seen the issues and the ways peopleuse this river. What do you think the local
people think of their river?Oh, my riverOf unfathomed water,I am floating in you for ever;Your tidal boreHas swept away my shore.
On a shoal I tryTo settle in vainI am swept away again.
A broken homesteadMay be rebuilt again ;
A broken heartShall never regain.
The heart that ebbs outSeldom flows in again.
When the river erodes,It strikes one shore;When the heart breaks,It shatters all the cores.
1. What does this poem mean?2. Identify the river language eg. erodes.
3. How difficult is the river to control?
