Into the Light

INTO THE LIGHT 

shadows disappear
 and my remnants of brave toil
 tremble in the light
 of hope discovered....
 wandering the path ahead,
 accepting the truth....

Sandra Hudson Date: 7/22/2009 6:31:00 PM The truth.....that looking under the water at everyone, distorts their bodies and they appear as fat swimming hippos flailing against the pools girth, as your hair floats around your bug eyes red with chlorine, and air filled chipmunk cheeks, until your breath runs out and you Mt. St. Helen erupt out of the water and scream...."Marco" ....what? oh? Oh yea...that was me.! oops! "Polo" Login to Reply
