before the kids jump in

we dive
into the pool, the clean
clear
pool
before the kids arrive,
and open
our eyes
to see the blue
bottom,
the white lines,
the crystal sun shining
through.
it's a diamond
we are in
as we swim from side
to side.
away
from the world until
the whistle blows
and all
the kids
jump in.
