“Swim”

“Swim”


I Look Upon THE Quiet Pond, Surrounded BY Large Whispering Trees.
I Hear THE Wind Blow Through Their Leaves, Musically Inclined IT
Fills MY Mind, With A Sweetness OF Harmony. I Jump IN This Lagoon
Shaded Color Pond AS I Also SEE THE Peaceful Beauty Underneath.
IT'S Filled With SO ANY Wondrous Things, Different Types OF
Species AND THE SUN HOW Shunned Through This Other Universe WAS
Mystical, Thrilling. I Reach THE Surface AND AS I Start TO Glide
Across THE Surface I Think TO Myself IN Wonder OF THE Moment AND
SAY "Life IS NOT SO Grim" FOR Throughout ALL THE Pain AND JOY
I'VE Faced, GOD HAS Provided ME TO Still Talk, Walk, Think, AND
TO Have THE Ability TO Swim. Fate Could Have Destroyed ME IN AN
Instant AT ANY Time OF MY Past IN Life AND Even UP TO This
Moment. That'S WHY I SAY Life Does NOT Look SO Grim.

THE Sense OF Swimming Gives ME THE Feeling OF Strength AND
Intelligence. Something Many OLD OR Young CAN NOT Even Fathom
THE Thought OF Ever Doing. I Enjoy THE Carefree Feeling OF
Skimming Through THE Water SO Clear AND Cool That'S WHY I Love
TO Swim.
