When life hurls curve-balls your way,
And you teeter on the edge of dismay,
Embrace the challenge, let wisdom guide,
And watch as your spirit soars, far and wide.
Changing paths may not be a breeze,
Stepping beyond comfort's boundaries, if you please,
But armed with resolve and a clever mind,
You'll conquer obstacles of any kind.
Tripping and stumbling may come your way,
Yet surrendering should never hold sway,
Keep forging ahead, with each passing sun,
Discovering a new path, where victory is won.
Adapt and overcome, let that be your creed,
Unlocking your potential, fulfilling your need,
To live a life of purpose and grace,
Never confined, always embracing space.
So relish the journey, the highs and lows,
Trusting that wherever it flows,
You possess the strength to rise above,
Adapting and overcoming with a heart full of love.

The Swimming Pool
Clementine watched the sun swaying like a drunken dancer from the bottom of her parents' swimming pool. It was July: the slow, gold-colored time when the heat felt mean spirited, and the air felt thick with possibility. If she focused, she could hear the neighbor mowing his lawn. She could hear the drone of the cicadas and cars passing her parent's house on Magnolia Avenue, lent an almost otherworldly quality by the chlorinated water filling her ears. Clementine checked her watch. Seven minutes. She should have lost consciousness by now.
