Bathwater

Talking to the white tiled wall
And the bathwater
My morning custom.

Black toe prints
Printed onto the bath,
And, later, the white bathmat.

Slowly turning, swirling water
About
Amid my banter with  

The bathwater.
Which I will leave dirty
Filled up by imaginings.

White clouds float upon
The greying water, black clouds
On my legs. From  

Sunlight speckled on the bath,
On my brow
Warming.

Like the thoughts,
My morning custom,
That I share
With the bath and bathwater.

    Isnt it wonderful when poems have a mind and a plan of their own. hee hee.

    truly is nice
    i love how you cut the stanza's up.

    and the whiteness/cleaniness contrast with the black/dirtyness.

    Thank you for your wonderful entry.
