NaPoWriMo 2012 - 30 Poems in 30 Days - Day 28
For some reason I woke up very early and of course some ideas were floating about. Thank goodness one popped into my head that helped me write this next poem. There are two more days to go for National Poetry Month! I hope you're all still hanging in there with me. Enjoy!
El Baño
A cold hard floor
Warmed gradually by sun rays
Fragrant, humid
A place to release
Rest
Cleanse
Read
Connect
Conversations reverberate off of tile walls
Colorful
Dark
Dank
Drab
Rich
Littered with chemicals and creams
Covered in germs
Bubbles float
Champagne bottles sweat
Strawberries are consumed
Bodies merge
Dance
Dissolve
Lay dying
Spring forth
In the morning
Life begins here
Death is washed away
