THE DREAM:
The pool has begun weaving its spell again. It’s been sending out tendrils of water that weave in and around my thoughts, wrapping around my brain.
uncover me ... it whispers ...
swim! swim! swim!
It’s been a long time since I’ve done any Pool Reflection entries. It seems like ages ago that we were happily swimming laps in our pool and lolling around on our chair floats. I have fond memories of the nightly swims when the only light was cast from the glow of Tiki torches and the winking of the fireflies in the grass. The cicada symphony the only sound. The silken feel of cool water against bare skin. ~ Ahhhh…. ~ It’s getting closer all the time, this dream of mine, but it will have to wait a bit longer I’m afraid.
THE REALITY:
Our pool still lies in hibernation under its blanket of icy sludge. Sigh. Keep weaving your spell, dear pool, May 11th will be here before you know it ...
To follow the progression of our pool’s transmogrification after we moved in, see this entry from last year.
