There Once Was a Girl

There once was a girl Who sat at the lake Thinking to herself She said, this is a mistake. The lake is all dry Nothing but mud. What was once so pretty, Is now just a dud. What could have happened To all that water. What about the fish? They don't just get up and wonder. Then she saw it in the middle A hole had form, the size of her fist. What could I do? How can I fix this? I can walk out there and fill the whole Then the water can no longer escape. The rain will come and fill it up Make it once again a lake. Now the water is rising up, The hole still filled with my hand. This probably wasn't a great idea. I shouldn't be here, I should be on land. There once was a girl Who sat in the lake. Thinking to herself She said, this was a mistake.
