Namekagon River Trip Reflected in an Oak Leaf
By Barbara Kappel

Greens of the trees,
Brown of the earth,
Gold and yellow of the sun,
Aqua, blue, gray of the sky
  and the ever-present water,
Dark blue of the night sky,
Orange for the unrelenting heat
    – day and night.
These combine with five women
     to create a memorable experience
     on the river.
