I am a high school rower, with a passion to tell other peoples about it.
HALF! HALF! THREE-QUARTERS! LENGHTEN! FULL! The coxswain roars at the start of the race Telling us to pry and to pull And not to slow from race pace Speeding through the 750 meter mark About to pass the other boat Going underneath the second arc Passing the cruise with a single quote The coxswain saying "within you you have the power to win" We have passed the other team But we keep on going with strokes as sensuous as a violin To us this is a dream We have finally taken the lead!
