Although I do not consider myself a true poet, I do occasionally pen a poem. Here's a fun one I wrote a couple years ago.
SPLASH!
She stands frozen on the edge
Much farther than she’s ever gone
She wants so much to keep her pledge
And not to be the only one
I can do this she whispers to herself
Hands holding tight as one
One big jump will get me there
Kids will see that I am fun
One deep breath, eyes squeezed tight
And with the jump a tiny sob
For one brief moment she takes flight
Till gravity does its ceaseless job
S P L A S H ! !
Wow, that was fun! she laughs out loud
She felt as though with wings she soared
She hurries to get out of the pool
And rejoin the queue for the diving board
