As I first get in I begin to freeze,
But then I hear whistling of the breeze.
I close my eyes and begin to sink,
My swimsuit now fully engulfed in water colored light pink.

Opening my eyes I regain my sight,
Looking up I see the sun’s gorgeous light.
I continue to stare as minutes pass by,
Viewing this golden lullaby.

It’s a perfect ore medallion,
Seeming to have rays of fire battalions.
Although the heat is scorching,
They continue their dance that's forming,
Up and down then all around
Helios army still uncrowned.

Fulfilling their final grand jete,
I have nothing left to say,
Water splashes around my face,
The dance disappears still with grace.
Beginning to go inside, I hush a soft goodbye
Still dreaming of this golden lullabye.

In greek Helios is god of the sun. The Grand jete is a ballet move.
