Skinny dippin' just comes natural to country boys
and girls, cool refreshing water of river, lake or stream
Never had a bathing suit till I was near eightteen
Went to the public pool where all the girls were seen
But down home in the quiet of the woods with nature
Looking on we all was in our birthday suits they fit
just like a glove, country girls feel right at home
Naked in the wild and we country boys always smiled
To see them in the pink but I never understood
Why they grouped together whispering and pointing
As us boys swung from the high tree rope diving
Now some adventurous lass would soon climb up
That old oak, grap that swing, man what a pup,
Flying over water then twist and swan dive out
Hit and splash then come up grinning, what a waterspout!

Delightful! Brings back some fond memories of my own! ~ Watching ~ and participating! lol
I've done all of the above! Those were fun and innocent times ~ and very invigorating and exciting! I could not even imagine my daughters doing some of the things that I did. Times have changed! ~ In more ways than one!

Grab that rope and swing over the old swimming hole! Bombs away!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this!

Have a Happy 4th!

Not only the country folks enjoy skinny dippin' Bloodline:-) And we townies don't like doing it alone either !  Put a smile on my face today this cheerful poem.
Happy 4th of July dear friend.

Oh, I enjoyed this deeply. Such memories never fade, because the pleasure was so overwhelming. Nothing like dipping naked in full innocence and enjoy the water's caress and the company of friends.

Wonderfully evocative.

Love,

Thanks for a fun dipping day!

Yo Bloodline,

This is very nice.  I remember swimming in the blue waters of the outfall from the hospital laundry.  It was fun, and I gained immunity to most everything.  The water was warm too.

Earth Angel, thank you for the memories,

A Romantic Heart, ah, those southern girls, sigh,

Heart2Heart, Well, here's to skinny-dippin' by twos, many thanks,

Margherita, dipping into full innocence,
keeps us young at heart, thank you,

Midnitesun, welcome I'm sure, yes, there seems to always be that one water hole that
is "the" spot for skinny-dippin'

Robert E. Jordan, thank you, and sounds a liberating experience indeed,


Bloodline
