I am paddle to the sea
I start my journey in the Sand Hill River
It is late spring and the river is flowing
I smell a pink lady slipper
I see a buck in the woods
I see a duck darting through the air like a shooting star
I have reached Beltrami, it is early summer
I touch a smooth rock
I see a railroad track
I hear a train whistle
The flowers smell like sweet strawberries
I see a doe with its fawn
I have made it to Climax and in the Red River, it is midsummer now
I see a bear with its cub
I hear the wind, a wolf howling at night
PLOP! A bird has landed on me
I think it's a blackbird
I see a wolf running through the woods like trees blowing in the wind
I have made it to East Grand Forks, it is late summer
I see a grandma with 100 cats
I smell car fumes
The leaves are starting to change color
And the water is slowly getting colder
Fall is soon to come
I have made it to Grand Forks, it is now early fall
The leaves are getting colorful like a rainbow in the sky
The air is getting cooler
I see a coyote
The juicy apples smell like gummy bears
The water is getting cold
I hear the trees blowing
I see a squirrel running like the wind
I feel the fish under me
It is the middle of fall now
The deer are shedding their antlers
SPLASH! An eagle just dove into the water to get a fish
I have made it to Lake Winnipeg
Brrr!! The water feels frigid
The leaves are turning colors from red to yellow to orange
I see a large rock
I feel a current in the lake
The water is smooth like a sheet of ice
I canՉt wait to get to Hudson Bay
IՉm going on the Nelson River
The current is strong
WOW! A fish just splashed me
The water is ice cold
The water is getting salty
I have made it to Hudson Bay
I am paddle to the sea
