The River Is a Road
By Jordan O'Connell
Genre: Poetry Level: Elementary 4-6
Year: 1999 Category: UAA/ADN Creative Writing Contest

The river road keeps flowing,
down to the grand ocean parking lot.
Salmon fry are driving
in and out the currents,
watching out for angler police who hook them
for a meal ticket.
The floating birch logs are trucking wildly,
crashing over speed-bump rocks,
plowing over the pedestrian snails,
heading for the
grand ocean parking lot.
