Down by the sea, this elegant adorable spindly legged graceful creature struggled with itself over ‘Do I go into the water? Do I not go into the water? I WANT to go in, it’s calling me and looks like fun, BUT it’s splashy and cold and there’s something about it that makes me scared, WHAT DO I DO????
Flashback:
Crystal Lake, Frankfort, Michigan…early morning swimming lessons…1950’s.
“Come on now, it’s time to get wet and blow great big bubbles!”
No….well maybe….no…I don’t want to…well, I sort of want to…but it’s too cold… it looks like fun but, I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!!
Oh life. I love you.
