'Heaven – Crocodile Haven Poem by Margaret Alice
'Heaven – Crocodile Haven
Diving into the swimming pool
feeling as if
the back of my head
is cut away with a scalpel
intense cold like an electric fire
burning my face and my feet
the invigorating feel is wonderful
swimming to and fro
shiny diamond and crystal drops
spraying in the brilliant sun
this is heaven – crocodile haven
when I get out
I’m too frozen to walk about
soak in a warm bath for an hour
crocodilean paradise - this is what
crocodiles are born for!

This is such a refreshing poem. Thanks for giving me a cool splash on a muggy Oklahoma day! I love the title and last lines. Swimming like being in Mother Earth's womb.
