Under the waves.

The following is a short tribute to the joy and peace and lasting effect of having a bath just for the pleasure of having a bath.
Some people think that having a bath to find peace and meaning is lame, they don't understand it's properties. Fine. For me though - and my father who introduced me to the concept many years ago - having a long, hot bath can bring peace and enlightenment. It can help you focus and make sense of things. Or it could be the place to go for some peace and quiet and a nice dram of your favourite spirit.
Either way, if your not a bath person I strongly suggest giving it a go. You never know, it could be the thing you always new was missing but couldn't quite put your finger on.
Anyway here's a few words that popped into my head while under the water tonight. Enjoy.

Deep hot water
Under the surface.
Holding your breath
'Til your lungs get nervous.
An ocean alone
An inky black cave.
With a long, deep breath
Back under the waves.
