Lycia Harding Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Only I Swim

==========================

She is a dark river only I swim...

Where others find desert they can never cross,
I drink her cool water as I jump in

While they suffer sand,
I sleep upon moss...

==========================

Lycia Harding August 19, 2015 at 11:14 PM Thanks, Andrea. I know you like the challenge of a structured poem, too and this one was hard!
