River Floating Harbor By Michael Lee Johnson


You are in my heart, the beat of my dreams.

The fellowship of love.

Up the river, down the river,

unfortunately gone.

Let’s dance gently through the memories.

River floats, a safe harbor into the sea.

Legionary singers are our memories.

My true love.
