the water can

i sat down by a bubbling brook
the forest all around

water moved like tinkling glass
it made the only sound

fern reached out to touch me
their fingers soft and cool

the grass swayed with a gentle breeze
a frog jumped in the pool

circles of sunlight shining down
finding their way through the trees

finish their journey to the ground
by dancing on my knees

mushrooms growing on a mossy log
their heads cocked to one side

listen to the sounds of the forest
from the shadows where they hide

the sun has baked my water can
the sand it slowly cooks me

please just one more image

and i will...........
