It has been a long while since last posting

It has obviously been some time since my last post. I guess it was because I was busy trying to graduate last spring (and I did graduate and recieve my degree), then I was sick, then it was summer (and boy was this summer busy). It is only now that it is almost fall that I have found the time to write anything. So without further adieu here is my recent attempt at getting back into writing poetry:

A sensuous sybarite swam to the shore.
Upon reaching the shallows,
With feet on the sand,
She slowly stood up,
Surveying her path.
Sinuously she stretched,
Arms up in the air,
With a silent woosh,
She grabbed up her hair,
Twisting it tightly and knotting it there.
She sashayed up to the sand,
And struck up her path,
Swaying ever so gently,
She laughed.

This is version 3 of this poem. For the most part I am satisfied with it, though I should probably tweak it a bit more.
