Into the Water

Keith Landry

My youngest daughter couldn’t wait to get back into the New Hampshire river water. Walking was not an option.

INTO THE WATER

Run into the water up to your knees
Little daughter, no, you won’t freeze
River flowing down from the sky
You keep on growing despite how I try
And how I try

Into the water where you belong
My little otter playing all day long
Playing all day long

My little girl, what would I do
In a world without you?
