MISSISSIPPI RIVER
IN THE HOT SUMMER DAYS WE WOULD GO SWIMMING ON THE RIVER:
THE WATER WOULD BE SO COLD AND WE WOULD SHIVER:
THE WATER WAS ON THE MOVE:
AND THE UNDER GROUND CURRANTS YOU MUST BEHOOVE:
ON THE HOTTEST MOST HUMID AND MUGGY SUMMER DAY:
WE COULDNT WAIT TO JUMP IN THE SHIVERING COLD MISSISSIPPI RIVER ANYWAY:
TO GET TO THE RIVER WE CROSSED THE BRIDGE INTO WISCONSIN IT WAS A THREE MILE BIKE RIDE FROM OUR HOME:
ONCE A WEEK OR SO ME AND MY FRIENDS TO THE RIVER SWIMMING WE WOULD ROAM:
IN THE SUMMER TIME WITH THE RIVER SWIM WE WERE HOT AND COLD:
GOT SO HOT ON THE LONG GRUELING BIKE RIDE TO THE RIVER JUMPED IN GOT SO COLD WE WOULD SHIVERTHEN THE BIKE RIDE ALL THE WAY HOME WAS EVEN HOTTER BUT WE WERE JUST KIDS DARING STROMG AND BOLD:
