Grandma, watch me
Splash and dive
Did you
See
That?
Hands in the water
Sweeping
through the bubbles
through the bubbles
And finding
The air.

Tan lines on legs
Sun streaked hair
Droplets on eyelashes
Sun streaked hair
Droplets on eyelashes
Wrinkly
fingers
Oh, the joys of summer! With all this darned heat, a pool + grandchildren is a blessing.
ReplyDeleteThe last time I went to the pool with my grandmother she couldn't understand why I was swimming. Thanks for the sweet memory. And so you are no longer confused, the aloe plant lives next to the mixing bowl.
ReplyDeleteAwesome poem! My kids could stay in the water all day in fact that is excatly what my son did when we went to my friend house. he even ate his pizza sitting at the edge of the pool with his legs dangling in the water! Summer is the best!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Joanne
What lovely images!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit, Susan, and your kind encouragement. My last book is in hard copy, probably make it into an ebook later in the year. I have purchased a Kindle, useful for editing my own writing when away from the computer, and great for downloading free classics - those that I have lost over the years - but it will never replace a real book.
