Warm sun beating down
Warm sand between his toes
Jumping into the water
Jumping into the unknown
Swimming steadily
Swimming slowly
His first time swimming
His last time too
Mothers eyes following steadily
Mothers eyes never diverting
Fingers pruding
Fingers gripping for the sand below
Growing tired
Growing anxious
Searching for his mother
Searching for anyone
As his hands start gripping air
As he starts to sink
Sinks so low
Sinks further and further down
His mother returns from her potty break
His mother begins to panic
Where is he?
Where is he?
He is down below
He is no longer swimming
