Raging Thrill

· Steve Robison

A toe in the raging waters
Feeling the sucking chill
Icy cold awakenings
Dive into the thrill

Frenetic waters rage
Pulled toward the valley dim
Wracked and rocked and thrown
As the speed of life grows thin

A river of tenuous trust
Through jarring and tremulous thrust
Deeper and deeper still
Alive in the perfect chill
