Puddle |
The puddle is not very deep,
but it dreams of being an ocean.
It’s desire: the splashing feet
of kids lost in laughter
and a steady fall of rain
to feed its ambition.
Mostly made of mud, it is not
very clear, but it reflects well
the bright sun, the images
of the little, smiling faces,
the birds that splash it
all to wings.
