Amos & The Pool
My name is Amos.
I adore the pool.
I am much better at jumping but my feet still won’t move.
I take my mom’s hands and make her hold me.
She said I jumped in last summer and even went under.
I do not remember that.
It sounds unsafe.
I swam with my big brother and my daddy.
I squeal and screech and laugh mightily the whole time I’m in the pool.
My mom says that why I swallow so much water.
She promises we can do swim lessons when we get home.
We can go on Tuesdays.
I think my friend Lucy is going to go too.
It’s fun to have a friend.
I have too many to count.
Love, Amos
