A Moment in Time                

I see the water splashing against the side of the pool

I feel butterflies in my tummy

I hear kids screaming ‘go Olivia’

I taste the coloring in the pool

I smell the sweet smell of success

I wonder what place I will come

I see the end of the pool

I feel my legs getting tired

I hear kids playing clapping games with their hands  

I taste the water as I dive in the pool

I smell hope in the air

I wonder who will come first

I see kids diving in the pool
I feel nervous as I jump in the pool
I hear kids whisper to them self I can do it
I taste victory ahead
I smell mum’s wearing perfume
I wonder if I will come first, second or third.

Olivia
