Ocquionis Creek

I stood in that meadow with sun reflecting back from the
Isolated drops of water and realized that for a river like the
Susquehanna there could be no beginning. It was simply
There, the indefinable river, now broad, now narrow, in this
Age turbulent, in that asleep, becoming a formidable stream
And then a spacious bay and then the ocean itself, an
Unbroken chain with all parts so interrelated that it will
Exist forever, even during the next age of ice.

The Susquehanna in James Michener’s Chesapeake

Noted in Brubaker 2002 –“ Down the Susquehanna to the Chesapeake”
