I love it, and I love swimming!
Thanks for sharing! :)
(poem by Therese L. Broderick of Albany, NY, USA)
ONE LENGTH
How long her first backstroke is,
body just leaving the wall,
arms and legs extended.
How long the blue pool lane is
waiting beneath her.
Smooth and clear.
How long this moment is
before a first kick
foams our easy viewing.
How long that black line is,
reflecting a streamer of flags
high above the water.
A line which cuts her
in half, giving her one length
more than all the others.
Merci et bienvenue:)
This woman us a tall woman, look at those legs and those arms are reaching out, half as long but probably twice as strong.
hello, thanks for visiting me! keep up the great blog. :)
Here is one that I updated and reposted from January 2008. The first draft of the poem was written in 2005:
She Walks Into The Water
Swim as fast as you can; you will never avoid the mariner's net.
Minime, sed nauta est tam potens ut nobis claritas ferat. heh. Cheers.
Ever Yours,
