Waterways
I have crossed the Mississippi
Walked the banks of the Ohio
Driven alongside the big Red
Stood in awe of the Niagara’s flow
I took a dip in the Kanawha
White water rafted down the New
Crossed over the muddy Missouri
At the Yellowstone, enjoyed the view
I went sailing on the Potomac
I went fishing in the Arkansas
Entered Mexico crossing the Rio Grande
From mountaintop the Colorado I saw
Listened to a loon on the Kennebec
Of the Hudson, I am a big fan
I got lost on the Chattahoochee
On the Suwanee, I got a dark tan
One time I visited the James
In Minnesota the St. Croix
I’ve been to the Willamette
The mighty Snake was a joy
I enjoyed the scenery on the Wabash
Caught a catfish in the White
Went kayaking on the Blue
On the Patoka, I spent a night
As you can tell, I like rivers
There is one I’m waiting to see
The River Of Life, it beckons
And I know it’s waiting for me
I will dive into it head first
Relax as it cleanses my mortal soul
Feel its power engulf me completely
To experience it is my goal
