Written piece
Our king of rivers
Kenneth Daniels
Guyana
About this piece
The poem is about our longest river the Essequibo River that is at present the center of a border controversy with our neighbor and an image of unity for all Guyanese a nation of six people.
Our king of rivers is rushing down to the Atlantic Ocean
Dissecting our dear land into two enviable portions
May unity be listed in red at the top of our rubric
And this river be that silver thread that mends the broken fabric
The people of this country are united by this river
And from mountains to sea our unity shall run deeper
