A Swimmer

by my son aka Nicolaus Flug



I am a swimmer.

I wonder who the best swimmer is?

I hear the waves crashing.

I see water splashing in the streets.

I want a new trophy.

I am a swimmer.



I pretend that I'm in the Olympics.

I feel water surrounding me.

I touch the crystal clear water.

I worry that I won't like swimming.

I cry when I lose.

I am a swimmer.



I understand what swimming is.

I say "awesome" to the other teams.

I dream to be the best swimmer in the world.

I try to win the race.

I hope I'll always like swimming.

I am a swimmer.
