Lake Champlain Summer Storm
The rain
Crashes and whips.
Our boat rolls side to side.
We watch as dad wrestles the waves...
saves us.

I feel like I'm right there at the lake, Janet. Such excitement and heroism in five lines!
ReplyDeleteIt could be a father's day poem, Janet! Scary experience!
ReplyDeleteWell done, Janet--and Dad! I agree with Linda B.--a good Father's Day poem.
ReplyDeleteVivid!
ReplyDeleteThis is an experience I'd rather have in a poem than in real life. Happy Dad saves.
ReplyDeleteYay, Dad! You packed striking imagery into a small space, Janet.
ReplyDeleteHaving lived near Lake Champlain, I know how you must have been feeling with those waves rocking you back and forth! Glad you lived to write the tale!
