Sink your head underwater

On a summer's day in the empty pool
Swing your arms and legs and all
Wonder at the sea of sparkling ripples
beneath and above

Sink your head underwater
Cast aside those goggles
Close your eyes, your eyelids little dams of tears,
Hear the whispers of the waves beckoning:
Come, flow with us

Hoist your head up
Look at the sky

Sink your head in the blue expanse
below, above;
in the blue expanse that is
yourself.
