In the quiet I can kayak
husstle passes
filtered grasses
slicing water dipping oar
I kayak in the quiet morn

When the river builds I shiver
anticipation
quick elation
testing skill eye and will
run the rappids still

Gentle float my little boat
softly rocking
burra mocking
herald dusk skies of musk
to kayak is not too brusque
