Geographical Valentine

Birth lies due south of death
A matter of a few miles
The road follows the river
Crossing over it once
And then later crossing back
So you get to see both sides
With their different flora and fauna
And if you're walking it
Passing through the little settlements
You can stop to eat for a while
On rock-outcroppings that look out
Over the distance you have come
And the longer distance still to go
It's best to break it into two days 
So you can sleep one night
Under the moonlight and the stars
And wake inspired for the rest
