This is a poem I have recently written. . . . it is about school starting and how all of the sudden my schedule is to full to enjoy the luxuries of summer. One of those luxuries being : swimming. So . . . I wrote about it!! Just for fun :) but that's what poetry is for!
As I stand above the surface
My Summer Friend shines with delight
Rippling in anticipation
Many days since I've been in sight
I smile and begin to descend
My toes are the first in greeting
My Friend welcomes me with open arms
Hugging me like our first meeting
I float across it's smooth surface
My friend's gentle touch helps me glide
I stare into the summer sky
Behind the blue the clouds all hide
I relax as the hours pass by
Time bringing back reality
Then slowly, I leave my dear Friend
Sorrow brings back formality
The summer days come to an end
Visits to my friend grow short
My schedule steals away my time
Summer days begin to retort
The time comes when I say goodbye
My Friend's tears ripple in silence
I'll count down the days till summer
When freedom will, once again, commence
