An Ode to ‘diving’

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

Fifteen dives is all it takes to saturate the blood,
Oxygen is all that’s used,
And the results are very good.

Inside the tank,
On chairs we sit,
With a mask on our mouth and nose,
The pressure drops,
Our ears go pop,
And some people like to doze.

Books or mags are taken in,
An hour we have to play.
Dominoes and Scrabble
Are the order of the day.

The music plays,
The fans switched on,
The hour is almost done.
It’s been nice,
Having time to myself.
When again, please
Can I come?
