Kayaking this afternoon
a calm river ride
calmness and serenity
nature by my side
Flowing along through life
searching the river bend
being one with nature
not wanting it to end
Not paying attention
dreaming in the sun
there is a prickle on my skin
the river is beginning to run
The rapids come all of the sudden
white rushing water in this race
there is turmoil all around
the thrill a prickle to my face
Rushing through the rapids
afraid I might turn over
trying to steer with my paddle
water is a spillover
Through the rapids
calm waters have returned
back to calmness and serenity
now well earned
