Rapids disrupt my calm flow of life,
Changing tides cause me much strife;
Now a boat torn to desolate shreds,
I'm a spinning wheel without any treads;
Watch as we continue to stare and fawn,
God grant that this river may crawl on;
Lost within infinite gaps and spaces,
I can't remember all of the faces.

OK, I'm going to sound like the language arts teacher now.
The first stanza has some good imagery. But the last line in the first stanza - you switch metaphors. Stick with the water images.
The last 2 lines of the poem are great. It's exactly how I feel right now as school winds down for the year. :-)
