What comes to your mind when you read this poem? Use your five senses to describe the picture and feeling after reading it.
Tonight In The Tub
I Sit Up Straight
And Stretch Out My Arms
Until They Feel Their Floating:
Fingers Resting Very Still.
I Lean Back Slowly
Until My Long BlondeHair
Is All The Way Under The Water:
Water Surrounding My Forehead
Water Making A Liquid Crown
Water Covering Into My Ears.
Water The OneAndOnlyS o u n d.
~From Touch the Poem
