The first day we arrived
you gave us all a piece of faded yellow rope
"Keep this on your person at all times"
Day in, day out
Alpine butterfly
(Secure the canoe so it won't fall off the trailer)
Reef, figure eight
(Simple stuff, multipurpose; the kids do this)
Sheet bend
(Connect two ropes with different diameters)
Double fisherman
(Kept it around my ankle so it wouldn't get lost)
But thank god
That the last knot I tied
Before I left
Was the one I was best at
Bowline
(Attached my heart to the sailing docks)
