it is by this river
clear,cool and inviting
that I first felt my feet tingle
immersed in its refreshing waters
it is by this river
still,relaxed and mysterious
that I first experienced temptation
to dive and swim with reckless abandon
it is by this river
that conflict first brewed
"resist", my mind reasoned
"indulge" , my body argued
it is by this river
that I piled my clothes in a heap
as my mind lost the battle
and my body triumphed
it is by this river
that I was found dead
for I dove headfirst into the waters
that were but a few inches deep

for those to whom poetry is more than just a fling
