Best Paddle Poems

[Every good story needs a sub plot, so…]

He watched from his vantage point on the bank’s roof
And looked out for folk that he knew were uncouth
His years on the run had made him aloof
But soon he would get ‘them’ to utter the truth

The dust kicking...

I guess I was left alone after sixth grade, wandering my way.
You believed in me, offered up openings and let me say
what I would and delve into the sun and world and stay
and even you ended up with the lecture that betrays.

I wrote I hate...

The first sign of summer
has this day appeared so clear
the sky's blue with sun about
you can feel it so very near

So to the beach I did go
Tshirt and shorts was my wear
took off trainers and socks
who's looking! I did not care

I then paddled along the...

I kept all of my money in my mattress instead of a bank.
It was stolen last week and I only have myself to thank.
I have never trusted banks, that's why my mattress was stuffed.
I want to buy a hot dog but I'm so poor that...

P-addle your own canoe, 
A-ugust nineteenth Saturday; 
U-se your independence, 
L-et your weakness fade away. 

A-s you paddle your own canoe, 
S-how the world that you can; 
U-nder the wide blue sky, 
N-ever ask help from any man. 
C-rossing the running river 
I-s your own...

What time is it
I can't be too late
but I'm not too sure I can go through with it
My hands are shaking
and I'm a walking sweat machine
I'm so nervous
I can't hide it
it's written on my face
yet I can't wait till the right moment
when the right moment...

Another afternoon of horrid heat.
I need to chill with sweet ice cream.
Homemade, with ripe strawberries.
Hand churned takes time, but it's the best.

My tongue will lick the paddle clean
then I'll put three scoops in a frosted dish.
I'm not greedy but can't resist the temptation.
So worth the...

For years I have admired you and felt like such a fool ...
I stare at you lasciviously and try hard not to drool ....
Now I have you in my arms and begin to remove your top ....
I look at you most longingly and wonder if...

So many chickies walking round on the loose
I dribble and drool like a silly old goose
The older I become
The more luscious their bums
Sure would like to jump aboard their caboose...

Sudden more often, lazy or lame
Moisture moves mountains 
While wild gets tamed 
Cluttered by spaces until corners cut shapes
Its all under pressure a little lost in space
What is`nt real and what does it mean 
Lately i laugh awake while i dream 
Sick with the fever...

Clouds turns black,
not plain nor blank
In that dark, 
I looked up to the sky 
Saw the glittering stars, 
Not any out of sight
Noble they all look, 
Every tick they spark. 

Twinkle, twinkle 
They all hail their moon
When in place, 
No one cause them to mute
Fashion...

Rowing on unknown waters,
                   paddling slow, 
             down the river, we go.
