Tuesday, December 16, 2008 Twisted rescue

I looked over across the lake,
Spotting someone over there,
And I willed that he look at me.

At that precise moment,
He looked up,
And started to call my name.

Taken aback,
I just stared,
And he slowly looked down again.

I made up my mind,
And took a chance,
Plunging into the icy cold lake.

I swam towards him,
Hoping to meet,
But something suddenly grabbed my feet!

I kicked and pushed,
Screaming for help,
And then I realized that it was him!

He thought I was drowning,
And jumped in to save me,
And if that wasn't interesting enough,
I found out that he,
Really couldn't swim,
And I ended up pulling him out.
