Amphibious Reflections

I glide through the water trying not to make a sound. I do a few “dolphin rolls” and they make me dizzy. Which way is up? When doing the side stroke one ear is submerged in water and all I can hear is my breathing and the sound of my body making its way through the water. Peace and contentment. Who would have thought a pool could add so much dimension to one’s life?

Tiki torches glowing; fireflies twinkling in the grass. Naked as a jay bird with no one to see, I swim until my body is sated. To bed ... and sleep ... good night!
