At Crowder Lake
Plunging wet splashes
With Long steady rhythmic strokes
Canoeing together

Canoeing
It was cold on the river 
So he lit a fire to beat it
A mistake he realised
As he sunk 
For you can't have 
Your kayak and heat it....

There once was a man from Mozambique

Who went canoeing most every week

A white water battle

Cost him vest and paddle

Now he's really up the freakin' creek...

The Weir At Lucan
In their coloured anoraks
I see young people canoeing
swinging their oars as they cut and dip
into the frothy waters.

Around me, daffodil bulbs
shoot stalks out of damp earth,
and falling water clears my head
of office banter and tedious days....

Ultimately, Alaska
Farewell, father.  On adrenaline filled adventures, you’ve raised me.  Canoeing open waters, fishing with trident spears.  In search of game, we’ve explored.  I clench my Glock .45,  the Brown Bears passed us by.  A proverbial Sirens call?  Nay.  Whatever lies ahead, I’ll take you with me.  We’ll meet again, soon....

Premium Member Canoeing the Mississippi - Part 12
Chapter 12: Harvesting Wild Rice

Sorry! I am having trouble writing this chapter due to the fact that my knowledge of this quite interesting, I think, annual local event is based on 1968 memories and may not be factually accurate today. So this Chapter will not be released until I confirm that its information is accurate....

T-Ball and Waterfalls
T-Ball and waterfalls -
picnics in the park

Riding bikes and trail hikes - 
bonfires in the dark

Sunbathing and stargazing -
beautiful full moon nights

Bar hopping and flea market shopping -
road trips to see the sights

Camping and canoeing -
sandy beaches are a blast

These warm days so full of life -
I just wish that they would last....

Adventure In the Outdoors
Paddling, struggling, striving,
We're canoeing and living.
Camping, hiking, sleeping,
We'll be journeying and dreaming.
Eating, singing, lifting,
We are having an adventuring.
Paddling, leaving, packing,
We're going and floating.
Arriving, accomplishing, celebrating,
We'll be returning, our homecoming.
Remembering, wishing, thinking,
We will be having passing memories....

Two people in a canoe
It is both their first time
One of them is nervous
The other is being calm

One seated in the back
The other in the front
Each one has a paddle
So the journey begins

The paddle goes in the water
Then the paddle comes out
One of them h]gets wet
From the wet paddle

Going into the water
Then coming out wet
One of them is very wet
Cooled off from the sun...
