"One Day In Maine"

ONE DAY IN MAINE

One day I went up to Moosehead Lake, pitched a tent and stayed up late

Got up early with the sun, ate some donuts one by one

Jumped inside my new canoe, then checked out the mountain view

 

Slowly started to paddle out, from the distance heard a shout

Look over there! to my left in the shallow inlet there was a Moose! 

And then another! A family of them under cover

 

Eating green and slippery weeds, from the water under trees

Mejestic soft with velvet coat, they looked at me in my boat

As if to say

 

Hey! Have a nice day! I returned the look and went my way

Couldn't have been a nicer day on Moosehead Lake

One day in Maine
