The Dive

  

A sudden clap of thunder

 in the far distance

Pieced the stillness of the cloudless skies

 And scattered away my butterflies

 I stepped forward

With blue above and below

and took the dive

 Reaching high for

The yonder in the skies

I took flight in a mid-air

Summer delight

Twisting and turning

A somersault that caught the wind

I turned and plunged right in

  Giggly I submerged

into the cold depths below

with pointed toe

and dare I say, as I emerged

 eager do it all over again
