Poefusion Friday 5 prompt: synchronized swimming, whalesong, fluidity, river, age (boy these were tuff!!!)

drifting downstream
the raft slips with ease
watchful of the way
the river channels fluidily
telling the untold
tales of old age
commodius the canyon
sealed aperture yawns
erstwhile concealed
waters recede in a sway
of synchronized swimming
impressionable and pliant
composing the way
oar gliding
cool water resonates
canyon walls arrest
a soothing whalesong
watching and waiting
signals to speak
fixed and resolved
firm in belief
headway flourishes
in a soft splash spray
approaching shore
abdicating the oar
land awaits
breathless

The idea of water engaged in synchronized swimming is beautiful. You have found the words for me for an experience that I have loved for years. Beautiful poem.
that is hard! no way could I have pulled that off, you did a great job!
Love what you did with synchronized swimming. And, rafting on the synchronized water can’t be all bad either. Have a nice night.
