One day Nort the new and Sally the salamander
Went on a float trip
When they got to the river they found a good sized peice of bark
That had fallen from a tree
They put the bark at the edge of the river
They climbed aboard
Then shoved off
For a while neither one of them said anything
Then Sally said "Nice day"
Nort replied "Beautiful day"
Silence for a while
Seeing the look on Nort's face
Sally asked "What are you thinking?"
Nort responded "Just how life is like a river, sometimes you have To take on some rapids, but as long as you don't go over the falls, Life is good."
At the sound of the word rapids Sally looked worried
Sensing Her worry
Nort said " I promise we will not hit the rapids
I learned my lesion from last time
And still the rapids are still a ways off"
Nort was always good for his word
And sally had nothing to worry about
Sure enough they Nort pushed them out of the water
A few yards from where the rapids started
All in all a beautiful day spent together
