The chocolate brown river roils and surges along its course.
Whilst along the flanking meadows the greensward is more river than land.
This languorous tide lays down fresh sediment and minerals upon the mead.
Layer upon layer of rich ferilty added by each and every flood.
This is a gift to the waiting earth.
