Let Me Celebrate . . .

Life moments . . . 

Water beckons. 

Take your swings, 

your slides, your chip bark playgrounds, 

your tunnels, your ladders, 

even your walking, rocking ducks 

and breadcrumb tossing. 

Let my hands in, my arms in, 

let me 'plash and buffet the glistening pleasure. 

Let me revel in its coolness, 

its wetness dripping, tickling.

Let me grin and blink 

up at the fountain rain.

Let me celebrate.
