Canoe by Back Point.
Love this place
Special space
And waters trickling
Down my paddle.
Precious sound
Freed from ground.
Nothing here to hurt
Or rattle.
Need the time
Dusk sublime.
And here come the peepers.(frogs)
Stars will show
Names I know
Cinema clear lost
To sleepers.
Smelling pine
Fragrance mine
Loons will show
If I just sit still.
God is pleased
Good as bended knees
Please come close.
He will.
