You follow me...
In swims of colored water
Tagging me in dips,
Every touch a magical print

To dive away,
Silent stiller depths
Sudden in your expert sleek
Thrilling me in brushes rose

I close my eyes and float
You play upon the waves,
Scattering your toys
Dunking me when I'm not looking

And rainbows come
Spots inside my tightened lids
Gulping water and flailing madly
Marco and Polo in the same speech

You are silver in the water
A streak of lightning
That warms my hand
In full pass and gentle electrocution

Always of your own

Brilliant; a sparkling delight.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.
