Today I Went A'Walking

Today I went a’walking, creeping and a’peeping my blue eyed zooming lenses along the great green canal to see what natural wonders I could see. And… Bees were a’buzzing, hopping and a’bopping their black and yellow heads into little lavender flowerettes to see what syrupy nectar they could drink. And… Dragon flies were a’flitting, zigging and a’zagging, their slender sapphire bodies over the silent silver water to see what skittering bugs they could grab. And… Turtles were a’tanning, dazing and a’lazing their brown round mossy shells on top of grey granite rocks to see what sunny warmth they could gather. And… Herons were a’hunting, walking and a’stalking their spindly legs and grey blue beaks through the calm clear water to see what slippery silversides they could catch. Today, I went a’walking Thumping and a’jumping my joyous heart and happy head along the white and gravely path to see what splendor I could take home inside of me. Note: I don't know what form of poetry this is. I was just playing with structure and words. I would love it if anyone has an idea of what form this might be. I wrote it after taking a walk along the C&O canal where I took pictures with my macro zoom lens. I had a great time finding and taking pictures of all the wonderful critters mentioned in the poem and wish I could share the photos I took too! My young adult son said it could be a childrens' book.
