Afloat upon the greatest pond I do drift my hands And let the ripples play The sigh of waves resting upon the grainy beach Echoes in the meadow woods And time ceases for a day But on that lake's surface I am unaware Of ripples found beneath My lovely little pond The fearsome jaws, the fearsome muscles Of mechanical nature Below abounds And ripping currents With heavy traffic Bide their time below But I float above the nashing teeth And water rivers too Drifting slowly on the pond's surface Above the torrent below

Surface Water
Afloat upon the greatest pond I do drift my hands And let the ripples play The sigh of waves resting upon the grainy beach Echoes in the meadow woods And time ceases for a day But on that lake's surface I am unaware Of ripples found beneath My lovely little pond The fearsome jaws, the fearsome muscles Of mechanical nature Below abounds And ripping currents With heavy traffic Bide their time below But I float above the nashing teeth And water rivers too Drifting slowly on the pond's surface Above the torrent below
