Staring at the shock waves
In the water
Where I threw that
Smooth river stone
Looking at the water
Ripple across the river
Little tiny bubbles of water
From down under the river
Where the muddy earthen floor
Is very mossy, here and there a pebble
I'm watching the water glisten
Like thousands of jewels
Flung across the sand
Sparkling in the honeyed rays
Of sunshine
On that hot Summer day
When daisies lazily
Danced the long hours away
And cattails waltzed from shore to shore
Dreaming in the sun
Underneath the sky
Where lazy Summer clouds
Float by in the celestial air
Laden with the perfume of wild flowers
'Tis a nostalgic
Daydream
