Fishing Creek Rap Song
Now here we are in Fishing Creek,
It truly is a sight to see!
The huge mountains, fall and rise,
It really can be a surprise!
The watershed is a great place,
Everyone has a welcome face!
You cannot miss visiting here,
Especially 'cause it is so near!
It's full of lots of wildlife,
It is amazingly alive!
There are headwaters, and a mouth,
One at the north, one at the south!
It all drains out, at one spot,
When it does, there's a lot!
So go visit your watershed,
Where everyone is your close friend!

Watershed
A watershed is a mountain with lots of trees and undergrowth. It collects water for people to use. Fishing Creek is the water supply for Millville. Mosquito Valley is the water supply for Williamsport. The dictionary says that a watershed is a ridge between the regions drained by two river systems. On one side of a watershed, rivers and streams flow in one direction. On the other side they flow the opposite direction.

Water
My soul swims in water.
I am content in this place.
Hope stays afloat, it doesn't submerge.
This is where I want and need to be.
I am everything I aspire for here.
Where am I so full of bliss?
I am in water, its brilliance surrounding me.
I am in the water with my soul and me.
I am nonchalant to everything else in the world.
The currents are my path in life
taking its journey over mountains
and simply living.
