In the dVerse Poets Pub Tuesday means it's time for Poetics ~ Guest Host Truedessa shares a poem titled "The Song My Paddle Sings" from a book of poetry by Emily Pauline Johnson and invites us to use the title as a springboard for our poems.
my paddle sings a song
older than my breath
rhythm low
against river's skin
with each paddle's dip
lyrics of water
lift, fall, dissolve
blue sky listens without reply
i follow the current's melody
knowing how motion, silence
can be enough
