Review By: David Griffin

It's an unassuming piece of writing and despite the fact that it's written on one level of understanding only, this neat "memory" poem grows on you the more times you read it.
I prefer poetry to resonate with other elements of understanding rather than a straightforward story written as poetry and so for that reason I'm giving "Water" three stars.

Water deep green

Dock slightly rocking

My sister laughing

Playing with the big kids

 

Big fish

Glints silver

Catches my eye

So close

 

I want it

Want to catch it

Reach down

Grab it

 

Scared

Darkness

Green above

Hands paddling, feet kicking

 

Choking

Can’t breathe

Sinking

Hand high, reaching

 

Lifted

Light

Safe

Dad’s arms
