“In Southeast Alaska” by Tommy Pearson

In Southeast Alaska, Water
is everything,
Is around everything, Is part of everything In Southeast Alaska

In Southeast Alaska, Water
Is in the rain,
Is in the streams,

Is in the humid Summer air In Southeast Alaska

In Southeast Alaska, Drought
Is a concept,
Is an idea,

Is not something we think about In Southeast Alaska

But in Southeast Alaska, Water
Can disappear,
Can run away,

Can leave us hot and dry If we do not do our part In Southeast Alaska

In Southeast Alaska, Water
Is everything,
And everyone,

In Southeast Alaska

So without Water
Who are we

Wet cold and fun A fun time to boat Time to have a great time Existing for a new person Rivers lakes creeks
