Swimming Hole

We were sitting outside on rocks near a pond

I had on only flesh colored panties; he wore nothing

Through the clear blue water we saw fish and life

Moss and algae on the rocks 

A group of men, women and children swam 

I was afraid the water was so shallow

They rode cedar boats with circle carvings

Like little yellow coffins 

He stepped into the water joining them 

Hoisting a young girl over the rock ledge

I remained reluctant to enter 

I stood there undecided and he was naked and free
