Children Sculpt with Water

I watch my
children sculpt with water
rather than hard clay
putting their world in order
emboldened hard play

Children sculpt with water
... water ever moving
catching light in lightning spray,
matches their shyness,
children sculptors who win this day.

Every drop a prism
casting colors all around
making a shroud for earth
mixing dust from the ground.



Patrick Darnell (10.16.1999)
