The River and I

6 4 1
                                    

The curves of the river are hypnotic.

It sways in a way that calls my canoe.

The steady waters ripple at my touch.

I slowly paddle, breaking the surface.


The river welcomes my humble travels.

I glide aimlessly on the smooth water.

She calmly beckons me to go further.

There is so much pleasure to be had here.


My vessel traces the curves of the stream.

Sunlight shimmers brightly on the water.

She knew I couldn't resist her beauty.

I stood up and removed all my clothes.


My naked body submerged within her.

Both of our needs were met in the instant.

The river needs a sinner to baptize.

Man needs the sensual love of water.
