STREAMSIDE
On the path
a girl is strolling,
by the path
a stream is rolling.
In the stream
the water glitters,
under water
crawdad skitters.
Path in spring
is good for going,
Stream in spring
is good for flowing.

Poem #3, National Poetry Month 2012
Thank goodness for my writer's notebook! The poem I thought I was going to write for today refused to be written. But I had bits and pieces of this poem in a discarded version of my SCUTTLE poem.
