Columbia

 

The wide Columbia;

deep and cold,

big and bold,

pushes relentlessly

down the gorge.


Slowed by several dams,

it seeks the ocean,

and always achieves its goal.


How many fish live

in a mile of water?


How many miles of water

patiently pursue the Pacific?


How many megawatts of electricity 

can the Columbia River produce?
