Lovely day of reads, thanks all for posting them.
Ssshhh, Don't Yak The Kayak
The paddle's first dip slices the surface
then rises, bringing with it the first drip
that winds its way down my arm, cool,
soft amid the rays sparking back the heat
that falls between still budding branches.
Avalanches of fruits' first petals part
before my slow-moving bow, a stroke
then pause; my body knows its pace,
the time to scoop the water to my face.
