peering into shallow stream
saw a boatman hit the bank
i've never heard a tiny scream
then the boatman sank
then spotted dragonfly
beautiful blue wings
catching flies as they dry
then releasing poison sting
spotting a tiny frog
sitting quiet on a lily
not sure it was on the bog
as it looked so silly
spotted a naturist
she was in the buff
i blew her a kiss
that was just enough
then saw a diver
he had the bends
said he was a bus driver
and this was his society of friends
then i saw my grandad and gran
they have now long since past
i was only a young man
but reflections always last
