Puddle Squeezers
~~~

Squeezing puddles
knee high in barley
merely stains your Levis
The rainbow's ore
lies deep
in the coldest stream

Dreams
in abundance
litter the shoreline
where aspiration
surrenders
to intimidation

Empty hands
are seldom wet past the elbow

Wade deeper ...
           awaken your reverie

If you continue
to think
what you have always thought
you will continue
to get
what you have always got!

This does squeeze a puddle...
Welcome home, Rex!  Dang it,
