A Bit of Joy

Her tongue drips silver
Calling children of all ages
Walk in the spring brook

Soft pebbles tickle
Urban woes begin to fade
A small interlude

Very lovely image of people escaping the harsh realities of city life to enjoy a "Walk in the spring brook." It may be "a small interlude," but these are the magical moments we remember and treasure. Beautiful! Love, Carolyn

Urban woes begin to fade....that line caught me..gave me the impression of someone who has left one life behind and embarking on another...love that second stanza...this is well done.
