(I somehow lost my post in the middle of reviewing it--sorry if this ends up posted twice! Now let's see if I can remember what I wrote.)
I was talking with a friend about swimming and she said she started "swimming for life" x number of years ago. I got the sense that she meant that it was more than a good workout--it kept her "alive." I have to admit that it has that kind of effect for me, too. At the risk of sounding too new-agey, it's nourishing in more than a physical sense.
What does swimming mean to you? How does that compare to other sports or activities you do? How does that meaning influence your goals and performance?

Much ado about nothing IMHO.
Correct. Sarcasm is always appreciated. Fortunately, Fortress' latest poem has none of that dreaded boyfriend-girlfriend stuff, even though it is now officially Valentine's Day. I think she and her twin are lucky to be cyber friends.
I'm frankly hoping I got the right thing for my swimmer wife or I will be posting on the "Women are Trouble" thread since I don't write poetry. I always write a good note on the accompanying card though.
