Running water
Twisting light
Shooting forward
Blocks your sight

Water is running
Down the slide
Back and forth
From side to side

Swirling round
Jumping cracks
Leading the people
Who ride on their backs

It paves the road
For them to follow
Leading them through
To the shallow

Splashes here
And splashes there
Drops are spraying
Everywhere

But then the life guard
Calls your name
The park is closing
Goodbye water
Tomorrow you'll repeat the same
