Play

Today is mine, the water is warm,
the sun is bright, the sky is blue,
rainbows chase my shadow
through the woods.

It's summertime, no teachers, just friends
to laugh with and play with in the creek.

All wet and soggy, we dive for the bottom
finding treasures that squiggle and squirm
in our hands, and what's this, a ball
now that's a real find.

It's mine, no it's mine, yes, it's mine
we all know, as we toss it back and forth,
as long as it's fun, then we dive for more
treasure. until hunger drives us home.

"It's my ball, my summer day!"

Striving to live the ordinary life in a non-ordinary way.
