Paddle Boat Sail


Our paddle boat sail took place today.

It was 92 degrees in the sun rays.

There was a good turnout but nobody I knew.

But I still continued on my healing avenue.


I could choose a breakfast or lunch.

I'll tell you what, those Veterans were a hungry bunch.

By the time I got up to the buffet, there was a wait.

So, I stood there and filling my plate I did anticipate.


It was a beautiful day and boats were on the river.

And an enjoyable time I had, and it did deliver.

Playing cards and watching the scenery.

And I was in awe of the paddle wheels and its machinery.


But physically I cramped, and I shook pretty bad.

And my back hurt more than a just tad.

It took me several minutes to get into the car.

Even with a step stool it was still kind of hard.


But I'm proud of me for going.

And I am better off knowing.

That mentally and with some stress.

I was among some of the military's best.

Great poem. Saw kite surfers out when coming back from daughters house this weekend. Wish that sport was around when I was young.
