In My Dreams – Lynette Rutherford
By Lynette Rutherford (Infantile paralysis experienced at age 4 – Left arm paralysed and weak side)
In My Dreams
I still dream I am serving in tennis,
Am marching, with baton in hand.
I lift in the arms of my partner
And twirl on the ice when I land.
I wanted to swim underwater.
Floating was best I could do.
I’m content to know that I
Had a go on a camel and a horse, or few.*
