Swimmers

I never learned the proper way
To swim, and so my form 
(With head above the water)
Is quite different from the norm.

I don't enjoy it anyway
And rarely hit a pool,
Preferring other exercise
And A/C to keep cool.

But watching the Olympians 
Torpedo in their lanes
Makes me marvel at such effort
Which both awes and entertains.

Every sport has its attractions
Yet each breaststroke somehow brings
All observers (me included)
Right into the swim of things.
