The rapids are strong
The river is powerful
I raft down it, desperately trying to steer
Twisting, turning, dodging
I try to avoid the jagged rocks
The raft goes through a rapid
Water sprinkles on my face, blurring my vision
I go down a steep section of the river
The raft slides into the calm.
My heartbeat is racing as I rest my tired arms
I look ahead
Mighty rapids still lay ahead
I sigh and shutter with pleasure
As I paddle toward them...
