You could call it a little foolhardy

but climbing the ladder to the top diving platform

was the least of his worries

you see bravado and high spirit

soon evaporate after ascending to

great heights

The ants below looked on

as he stared into

the puddle of blue

No medal of Gold , Silver or Bronze here

but perhaps continuing affection

of the girl from the hotel bar
