-A bathing beauty born to be afloat <br />On waters blue and still, well nigh the beach <br />Of forsaken isles, where no man has trod. <br /> <br />The pretty blonde with golden hair looks great, <br />As sun-beams swathe her raiment through and through; <br />The conchs and corals of the sea-bed show! <br /> <br />She plays with sea-gulls happily for long; <br />The water-waves wafting a divine song; <br />The lovely lass looks lit like fallen star! <br /> <br />The damsel day-dreams, drenched in dawn’s day-light! <br />There is no prince to woo her to be wife! <br />The bathing nymph has never tasted strife! <br /> <br />Her life goes on in Mother Nature’s lap! <br />Each sun-set drives her deep down for a nap; <br />She‘s up again smiling at break of day! <br /> <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 8-4-2008<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-bathing-nymph/
