Poetic Thoughts Floating On Water Ways

Everything is calm 
Only silence going on 
Getting caught up on speed 
With a quick read 
In the Sunday news 
Not much to lose 
Staring out in a placid lake 
Still visual it does make 
Glistening like a crystal 
Opening the front page tension due to a missile
Getting caught when someone blew the whistle  
Reporters did inquire 
Diffusing the issue on the wire 
Out in the tranquil water 
Kids playing with a camcorder 
Fooling around with jet skies 
Using technology as a transportation tease 
During the outing that is play 
Children having fun in their own way 
Nothing to worry about 
Enjoying life without a pout 
Youthful action is what it takes 
Creating thoughtful challenging little wakes 
There is a fisherman on a river 
Relaxing while catching dinner 
Immaturity maturity glides by 
In a boat teenagers cheerful enthusiastic cry 
Giving the angler a few waves 
Waking him up from a sleepy grave 
Sunbathers needing the glowing shine 
On the beach in a line 
Surfers holding on to a survival tool 
Staying safe feeling blue 
Being all wet while looking cool 
Off in the distance 
Vacation business having no resistance 
Setting sail 
Passengers writing postcard tales 
Starting a commotion 
In the port docked ocean 
Setting off on an excursion 
A floating luxury hotel is the escaping diversion 
Motorize engines propelling a swirling ring 
Circulating many natural things 
All the way down to the sandy floor 
Sending a current message to the shore 
As well as those onboard
Looking to encounter a sizable score 
Lazy 
Hazy 
Summer days are here 
A good reason to pop open a peaceful Corona beer
