Doris Culverhouse Poet Rhyme

Swamp Thing

China made my canoe which I proudly adored
Flotation and recreation all on the creek shores
The day was right cool
The water icy below and a sudden rupture

Sent me into the swampy muck
Slick as an oily tool attended fish school
My feet had no traction and caused a change reaction
No leverage --spilled my good beverage

Never depend on a chinese rubber air canoe
Or you just might loose a shoe!!


**well I guess it is done ;-]
