IMAGINE

it is almost dark
and
you hear a

SPLASH



now

open your eyes
and you see

a
brook
flanked by
green grass
and
yellow buttercups

the brook section
covered with a duvet
woven from common waterlens
is sports ground of a baby frog

cowered in the grass
sit the parent frogs
waiting for the moment to leap
SPLASH
Reinhard Bock, September 2011
