Current if Life
I poem I wrote this summer, on Father's Day actually, inspired by going kyacking at an early hour.
Morning current, no match for me
Paddle against it, paddle, paddle, paddle
Rest on the water, go with the flow
Wherever the water takes me, that’s where I’ll go
Noontime current, tougher than it seems
Paddle a little harder, row, row, row
Go down the canal? No, too dangerous
Keep paddling, look! you’ve got it
Paddle to the middle, safe between the lines
Nighttime current, impossible on my own
Down the canal I go, a dark, creepy scene
Cries for help to get me out, please don’t let me die
Midnight current, stranded by myself
No sign of life . . . till death do us part
Wait a minute, what’s that I see?
A bright light coming closer, closer
Too bright to see, but it’s headed my way
Help me please, rescue me
I’ll do whatever you say
As long as you save me from this dark, cold place
Command me what you want, I’ll take my best shot
I can’t do it alone, will you help me?
Lifetime current, smooth as silk
I’ll do it myself, don’t need any help
I live for me, all for me
Who else should I live for?
My life is mine, not anyone else
Lifetime current, problems here or there
More hours at work, I’ve got it good
Hang with them? I’m not that dumb
Paying bills, working hard, Look! I’m doing fine
Lifetime current, with the wrong crowd
No thanks I say, no, no, no
Come with us and you’ll be fine, you can trust us with your life
They reeled me in, I had no choice
I hope to stay alive
Lifetime current, left beaten to the curb
No one around me, all are gone, dark, cold, damp
A sound in the distance, lights flash bright
Too bright to see, but it’s headed my way
Voices all around me, someone’s here to rescue
Hands come down and scoop me up, someone heard my cry
You kept me alive and You saved my life
I know my life isn’t just mine, it belongs to another guy too
Command me what you want, O Lord, I’ll do anything you say
I’ll give it my best shot, but if l need help, will you guide me?
