Little Boy At The Brook
Tadpole, Tadpole in the brook.
Little frogies in their nook.
Beatles and bugs are all about.
Splash! one just got eaten by the trout.
Where is the little boy that knew this place?
Why doesn't the water reflect his face?
Did you know that a humming bird sat on his
shoulder?
Is he gone now, you know he is older?
Busy life, family, work and travel habits?
No! He is just bigger.
