The dip in the cool pool
soothing...dreamy...
I know I was a fool
It was not you - just me
I rose above for air
but..ah! I was drawn
I just did not care
I swam back down
Time was not my ally
Cool pincers stung me
I was fish out of water
I shuddered n thrashed wildly
I was dripping wet
I was tired and sore
It was not over, not yet
for soon, it was cool again
I was cool, but not wet
I was dry, I did not cry
Now, I do not despair
I do not gasp for air
