    Slow Lazy River

    Listen to the gentle lapping
    of a slow, lazy river.

    Feel the gentle waves becoming
    a beating pulse counting time.

    Heed the churning torrent beating
    with a rumbling, raging voice.

    Beware crashing rapids thundering
    a storm of reverberation through the air.

    Enjoy shrieks of laughter echoing
    off steep canyon walls.

    Do not be deceived by the gentle lapping
    of a slow, lazy river.
