My Friend Aquatic

MY FRIEND, AQUATIC I am supported, gently, head to toe. By your concern to hold me away From the hard, cold pool floor below. I push you with hands and feet, But you resist and little do you move. As though a solid you give me a handhold With which to pull myself forward. I push you away yet there you stay And as I forward move, You caress me as I pass you by. As I splash, in friendship You wave, wave all the way To the edge of the pool. Yes, Aquatic, you are my friend, Hard to emulate, As you both soothe and stimulate.
