Hello Ella,
These short poems are challenging to pen; that is for certain.
I am so pleased my offering resonates with you!

Your poem fits the picture perfectly. You use of words creates a vivid image of rowing on the water and the reader can feel like she is rowing. Excellent use of words.

I really like the artwork you chose for this piece. It's absolutely breathtaking and fits the poem perfectly. And I love the term oar-blistered courage. Good luck with your contest.

Comment from ExperiencingLiphe
That looks fun but so scary. I'm not a good swimmer so things like that frighten me but we did go canoeing in high school when I was in adventures. It was a gym class where we did a ton of different things. Canoeing was the first time I ever peed in the woods. But the scenery is pretty.

Wow! You created a real thrilling sense here and I've never raced in a canoe or kayak! Great choice of verbs (rushing, racing) and anthropomorphism of the waves "taunting" and very descriptive result of the oars friction in the hands.
