Paddle away my drowning fate-- cup me out of demise
I bump body on bowl spoon, soaked like cereal

Up the creek without a paddle
What a catastrophe
This line is so explicit
Was it a he or she
Who penned this line
With such simplicity

Up the Creek

Any day of the week 
If you find yourself up sh*t creek
As I understand 
You can use your hands 
But it’s a paddle that you really seek.

Sleep

sink into sleep
drop into deep
paddle in waves
of fluffed up sheep
glide through the dark
fade into dense
waves of muffled
quiet rest.

One Way Or Another

Actions speak louder than words
A saying I thought was absurd
Till Mom showed the way
If I don’t obey
The paddle tells things went unheard

Quack quack quack  duckling’s 
Webbed feet paddle to mommy 
Single file, hungry

A duck that used to waddle
Could not swim, just paddle
This concerned it of course
Using an inflatable horse
He swam the lake on its saddle

Another Sailor's Tail Tale

They paddled till we reached the shore
Where I set them free to explore
Then back to the sea
This sailor did flee
They’ll not paddle me anymore

A cowboy was dumped on the dole
He sat in his saddle
Just rowing a paddle
Because work was never his goal

I’ll gladly paddle right across the pond,

Sacrafices

Floating off
So far away
Where you cant 
Go your own 
Way
You paddle 
Hard
But its still
Not enough
The more you struggle 
The farther 
Back you 
Will go.

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

Remember the river
And being lost with a purpose.
Houses burn all around you,
Yet you have a paddle you've had
Since birth:
Find those new sunsets.
Ripple spirits into flight.

Premium Member Lunchtime In The Dark

When you find yourself stuck in a corner
You will turn and see rules spread all over
Soon be lost in the shuffle
Up the creek with no paddle
Missed the boat like a fish out of water

Premium Member Terrible Advice

Young me took this to heart:
“Love many, 
Trust few,
And always paddle
your own canoe”

Now I paddle my canoe
In icy waters
Far from my youth
and my many lovers 
not one of whom 
I trusted.

Beautific

A watery throughfare
Paddle-stepped, glassing
All that, of a love-bright sheen
Leant, of we o'er, seen.

A moment acknowledged
Dreamy, in passing
Of swan; who identifies
With such; and nods; cries.

Life Is Short,Make the Most Out of It

LIFE IS SHORT,MAKE THE MOST OUT OF IT
 Life is short and the world is an ocean of unfriendly people...
 A sense of humor is the only paddle you  have got....
 so hold on it and keep conquering that tide
