This Happy Place

Daydreaming

while the water sings to me

the daisies bring simplicity 

the grass so lush

and in the hush

my frog friends forgive me

as over many years

I thought of little tadpoles

I had taken from muddy ponds

to save somewhere

 away from there.

Playing

 by the Yarrowee

I whistled to each bird

and followed every bee.

Now habitats surround me

so every frog I see

is happily living free.

I won the charity bid for this framed print

so tears of joy rolled down my cheeks 

as this delightful

bright green-grassy fresh

children's book is here to rest.

The art comes the children's book

called "All The Ways To Be Smart"
