Imagine…

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
