#kayaking
Splish splash splish splash
Into the water
My paddles crash
Neither a care nor a bother
Gliding along
I listen to the river's song
My mind it soothes
My soul it moves
Silver flashes
As a drum flits by
And otter play
So pleasing to my eye
Water sloshes against my boat
While I watch an eagle fly
Man I love to float
Muddy waters flow on by
Man I love to float

Today I went kayaking
I glided across the cool waters
Brackish and so devoid of life
This time of year
As I drifted underneath the bridge
I imagined it painted like the Sistine chapel
A choir of angels hidden beneath the barnacle encrusted concrete
For only the fish to see
I had almost forgotten that the river existed
Five minutes away
And all I wanted to do was paddle
Out into the ocean
