Nanook's Paddling Poetry |
Tiny Rivers
Tiny rivers …. intertwine
make me grab my paddle
make me loop my line
Tiny rivers … make me glow all over
with a feeling that I'm going to run them till the end of time.
Tiny rivers … in the pines
mingle and meander
squiggly wiggly lines
Tiny rivers … flow through fields of clover
with a feeling that unless I run them, I will lose my mind.
Tiny rivers … sweet and fine
ripple through the backwoods
cross the county line
Tiny rivers ... make me go all over
with a feeling that I'm going to find the one that I can call mine.
Nanook of the Nashwaak
Reach out and touch a rock
Sung to the tune of "Tiny Bubbles," if you're old enough to remember that tune by Dean Martin....
