		Swimming Up the River        by Tim Seston Swimming up the river on a sunny day Water’s so warm for the fish to play They dive over boulders sunk in the ground Some so big that they have to go around Swimming up the river on a sunny day Lots of debris getting in their way So they go to the bottom, swim underneath And close their mouths to protect their teeth Swimming up the river on a sunny day Dart through the plants trying to catch some rays Stalks are healthy and the leaves are green Fish go back and forth and in between Swimming up the river on a sunny day Fish are looking for a place to stay Protection where fish can rest their fins So they find some shelter and they settle in Swimming up the river on a sunny day Water’s so warm for the fish to play Swim back and forth then up and down Swim in between, beneath and around
