"Dream Swimmers"
Jack of Hearts
Played his sleeve
Violins, no less,
then,
pebbles thrown at windows

Love Lifted a Page

Dream Swimmers
Crossing Deep Oceans
with strange tides
Entranced
in the
Sleep of Arden
Love Lifted a Page
to Lake of Magic
a City All Golden
Fingers touched
entwined in the
Sleep of Arden

"We that are true lovers run into strange capers.”
William Shakespeare, As You Like It
"Do you know
We are the young ghosts
In reverse
Our stories unfold
Moving slow..."

what of little men
rescued from the deepest dark
...are they grown up now?
did they learn to swim past fears?
sunlight shines upon their teeth

I never learned the proper way
To swim, and so my form
(With head above the water)
Is quite different from the norm.
I don't enjoy it anyway
And rarely hit a pool,
Preferring other exercise
And A/C to keep cool.
But watching the Olympians
Torpedo in their lanes
Makes me marvel at such effort
Which both awes and entertains.
Every sport has its attractions
Yet each breaststroke somehow brings
All observers (me included)
Right into the swim of things.
