I thought I’d share the following poem I came up with while my dogs and I explored some nearby waterways.

This Hidden Paradise

Waterways connect—
A hidden highway
Off the beaten path.

Bobbing boats highlight
Stacked kayaks that spotlight
A smattering of yachts.

Passerbys stroll the meandering pathways
That hug the waterways,
Creating a secret oasis.

Arching tunnels yield
To decorative iron benches
On which to rest.

Taking in the scenery
While enjoying the view—
This hidden paradise.

Afraid to blink
Lest it vanish into a dream
A wonderful…magical dream.
