A Rose is not only for a Summer
A night owl in the harvest moon / was awake till the crack of the dawn / but wasn’t surfing online, wasn’t rowing

My River Trip [Short Descriptive Essay]
The sun is setting on a hot day, he hides coyly behind tall sycamores, his reflection playing on the undersides of trees on the riverbank. His warm breath is the breeze that kisses my cheek. The river carries me on, over pebbles and rocks below the glassy surface. Dragonflies dart around, flying gems that glisten in the sun. The heron, with diligent patience, hides seamlessly in the trees awaiting his next meal. He takes off when I get near, his frame is much larger in flight. The sweetness of honeysuckle is thick in this warm air. The trees on the riverbank are laden and dripping of the sweet flowers. As I gently glide through the water, the waves lap against my boat, almost making the sound of kisses. This is my river time. All these beautiful things, I love. There is passion in Nature, it is in birdsong and in the breeze. It is in the river as it moves along and the swaying of the trees. This is where I breathe.

Patiently he untangles the net / Standing calmly / Brazing the breeze

a boat
Life is like a boat it's smooth sailing half way through then all of a sudden it gets rocky you start running into rocks almost about to sink then it's back to smooth sailing you start to heal then life hits you again or in this case a rocky shore there is no end to these changes they come and go as they please making your life a living hell making your life unbearable to live in life is like a boat smooth then rocky

Please Don't Leave Me Here.........
Build me a slow boat to Timbuktu via China / Heave down a fleecy cloud and let me float to Nirvana / Hunt me a unicorn and let me ride to the Enchanted Forest
