WATERY WEDNESDAY

PLAYTIME!

Like beads on a necklace that's fallen apart

Lie the pools in the dry creek bed

Lying waiting there, in the sun,

For the rainy days ahead.

Hoping for clouds to turn anger-blue,

Hoping for heavy drops,

As the days of drought take a backward step

And the bright blue weather stops.

Then, like children let out to play

The pools will hold hands as one,

And laughing, gurgling, leaping with light

Off down the hill they'll run.
