I Took The Plunge

written by: Magdalena Podobińska

I rose my head
and saw you were staring
Swallowing me
And I took the plunge
I dived into your eyes
I turned and swirled
and danced in them
I did enjoy the swim
The water was warm
And a bit salty
We both cried
This is it
That much and that little

Little wonders
