An excerpted small poem from my book

 

 

Rivermen
1978

 

Rivermen they all is strange,
Once they taste it they don't change.
Spend their money on a real good time
Till all that's left is nickels and dimes.

I had two weeks home on deckhands pay
But I ran out of money the first five days.
Ain't it just a cryin shame,
Two weeks off and just five days.

Hi Robert, Maybe you are the next Mark Twain? He's the only riverman that I ever knew or read, except the guy who lost all that oil in Valdez! Lots of nickels and dimes there, eh? LOL Thank you for sharing this... and welcome to the den.

In Spirit,
Bear
