I Pushed Poem by Katherine Trovida

I Pushed



I pushed
the canoe
away from the dock

I fell
in the water
after I pushed it

I need
strong workers,
adverse to land

to grip
the oars
and risk their
lives

to row the boat
across an ocean or two
and dock it
in another country

the boat
should
be docked
in a remote,
breathtaking place
