Canals
By Sarah Andrews

Travelling along the canal,
Such a pretty sight to see,
Chugging along the canal,
You see different sights and sounds.

Engine vibrates,
Boat shudders,
Echoes of the engine,
Surround the open area.

Sitting at the front of the boat,
The breeze tickling your cheeks,
Feeling your hair,
Making you pretty.

Passing fishermen,
Quacking ducks,
Moaning geese,
And the kingfisher passes you.

Insects skim the water,
Fish jump and splash the water,
But what lies in the depth?
Unknown monsters lay deep.

The water is green and complex,
The sun shines on it,
Making it glisten,
Sparkling in the sunlight.

You finally reach your destination,
Through the Lock,
Next to the farm,
People watch.
