I Went Against the Stream and Lost

I went against the stream and self, I saw me tired, laden, and lost. I carried the water uphill; I went against the stream and self; Alas, it flowed to the lower shelf! Oh stream, i am so very cross! I went against the stream and self, I saw me tired, laden, and lost. 8/18/14

I have spent and wasted a lot of time going against the stream. Now I have learned to go with the flow. Congratulations on your winning poem.
