Synchro
If you dive
like I dive,
I will count
it off for you,
ask if you
are ready.
We will
leap off
together,
spin out
over the
water
that waits
to receive
us with
barely
a splash
of sound.

nice…the short even lines add to the descent…and so much better when we dive in together…smiles…ready? 1, 2, 3….
Thanks, Brian!
Hi Marilyn. I can see there could be a number of meanings for this, but the “diving” caught me the instant I read it, as I’ve seen some of the Olympic synchronised diving this week! Of course, it could also be read as a metaphorical shared dive too. 🙂
Thanks, theme friend! I watched this event, too. I was struck by how one member of the pair counts and asks the other if he/she is ready. Oddly sweet. 🙂
Beautifully choreographed event, Marilyn. Loved the control and language selection to suggest the plunge.
Thank you, Becky! I didn’t even think about why I wanted such short, controlled lines. I saw the structure only at the end, and was glad I’d trusted my instinct!
