Water has a dream
My dear tree friends,
Hello!
Through the window, I can see you
silently coping with the heat, the dust,
the wind, the fumes, human activities, with those over enthusiastic avians,
the hungry felines and canines plus those zooming machines
on wheels with their jarring sounds.
It makes me sad to see this, while
here I am, comfortably placed
inside a hospital, being pampered,
cared for, surrounded by people
who need me... though
I dream often...
of escaping from
the odours of this environment
once in a while, to travel,
to tumble merrily
over mountains, and valleys,
cascading over cliffs,
meandering over rocks,
snaking a tortuous path over
piles of pebbles and sand,
with my own unique brand of music.
Your loving friend,
Water.
