Observing Life From a Different Angle

The canoe turned upside down Leaning on the bracket type attachment Held air born unused Casting a cresent shadow againt the barn Discarded window boxes lying in path Window boxes unused for awhile The evidence that the canoe has been air borne Dying from misuse and neglect_____ Canoes are made for water Elegant are they rightfully used Graceful floating paddled along Just don't clumsily stand onesided When will the opportunity arise For the canoe to float again Soon will be great, sooner even better Freedom and destiny on cool clear water (Jotted down when waiting for Cody to see about his dad.)
