Cheyenne Kay Poet Imagism

Silky Bliss

Stepping up
On to the block
Take positions
For the starting dive
Waiting for
The countdown
To one
Then the gun
Taking off
For yards 
At a time
Feeling the
Silk slide
Across my body
Three strokes
Deep breath
This I repeat
To beat out
the competition
Every stroke
Every breath
Every second
Puts me closer
To the top
To the sense
Of accomplishment
Being in this
Is a nice
Silky
Bliss
