CRAWLING OUT AND FALLING  UP



her first puddle
"There's rain lying dead
in a hole!"



she's only ever
seen rain fall
not trapped in a *** hole



"Why doesn't it
crawl out
and fall up?"



indeed
I see it happen
in thought if not in deed



I have to admit
I'd never thought of it
like...that



Now she's all
grown up and
doesn't even remember it



we meet a modern
day puddle and
she's puzzled...when I say



"Why doesn't it
crawl out
and fall up?"




"Oh Da...!" she sighs
"How do you ever
think of such...things?"
