[bodytext] => WHITEWATER I climb into the raft with hesitation As the guide states, “We’ve lost no one yet” The flowing waters look so inviting Trickling sounds asking, “Have we met” With the push of an oar we are off Leaving sanctity of solid ground Swirling eddies of bluish green Icy waters on a trek to the sea surround Riding gentle calms before the storm Every bend brings a quicker pace Growing sounds of distant thunder As my heart it begins to race Suddenly whitewater is upon us Each peak frosted with raging foam Surrounded by captivating big rocks Carving rapids into pieces as they roam This boat contains twenty people Tossed to and fro like a rag doll The screams all drowned by the roar As the river shows its power to all This river ride ends too quickly Sweat dripping down our oarsmen I glance at all those around me All eyes saying “Can we do that again?” Our dreams can be like a river Ever changing directions as it flows We as dreamer's can be just a vessel Following the river wherever it goes So many times we let the water slip by Don’t be one sitting on the shore satisfied Life’s obstacles are a challenge Take a chance, fight the rapids, dance the tides [comments] => 2 [counter] => 164 [topic] => 48 [informant] => OhSaige [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 20 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
