A Dreaming Crocodile (Rev) Comments

I love the generic-sounding name- -chocolate deluxe- -reminds me of Turkish Delight... (C.S. Lewis, I think) . Your poem has lots of wonderful details giving us a peek into the salient points of your day and the important ones in your life. After many readings I have decided that some of the characters mentioned in this are your dentist, your daughter, your mother and maybe your son. Or else you might just be reading a good book, poolside. This poem is wonderfully-written and fun to hash-out. I imagined the crocodile as a balloon at the end, and watched you drift away into a cloudless, blue sky.
