I am Paddle to the Sea
Whoosh!! I get thrown into the water
Right here right now my journey begins
My goal is to make it to the Atlantic Ocean
I looked pretty with the flowers on the side of me
Thinking of the boat just makes me want to go for
a swim, but if I have a goal, then I have to meet it
When I get to the Sandhill River
It is kind of chilly, but it feels nice
After a short while I am halfway there
and before I know it, itՉs nighttime
I just realize there is a storm coming
luckily I fall asleep before the storm is here.
The next day I make it to Beltrami
it is a nice day until I feel a water droplet
I know what is going on
it is going to rain
I try to paddle faster, but before I know it
it is starting to pour
I think I will never get to sleep,
Today it is kind of windy and
Before I know it I am in the middle of
Beltrami
I get three-fourths of the way through Beltrami
I am starting to get tired
Then I fall asleep
Once I wake up again,
it looks different out and I
Notice I am in Climax
It is a little chilly, but at least it is fall, not winter
I am two fourths the way through the Red River
then I stop
I try to paddle, but I canՉt
It turns into an hour
then I hear a loud bang
Boom!! Crash!!
And before I know it, I am moving again
But then I notice it is a bad storm
I really am moving
then it stops
It is calm
I feel the water, warm,
it must be 80 degrees
Whoosh!!
A fish jumps out of the water
I see birds fly over me
Some of them I have never seen before in my life
I am getting a little bored
I feel the water, a little chilly
It is getting dark
I learned something:
when the sun is going down,
the water gets cold
but when it is day, the water gets warm
And then I fall asleep
when I wake up I am in Grand Forks
It is still summer
I can smell the chicken
it smells good
I am halfway there
it starts to get a little chilly
And then here I am
Canada!
The water is warm.
I think I see something!!!!
Is that a beaver?
I am getting out of here! Bye!
When I get to Lake Winnipeg
it is a little cold
I can feel the freezing cold breeze
After all it is starting to be winter
I made it to Lake Winnipeg
I see birds flying over me
it has been more than a week here
a storm is coming
it is cloudy
the storm is here
Lucky I get out of it quick as a flash
I see a tree and a waterfall, cool and then
whoosh!!!!!!!
Down I go! I am in the Nelson River
Two more stops to go
I want to really describe what I see for the rest of the ride
I see a busՉ»Hey, can I get a ride?
I see a beeՉ»AAhh donՉt sting me!
I see a deerՉ»it can hear meՉ»hello!
I made it to Hudson Bay
One more stop to go
the water is getting low
after all it is spring
I made it to the Atlantic Ocean!
The water is cold .
See you on our next journey!
I am paddle to the sea and my journey is over!!!!!!
