The Windmill Turns The windmill turns and down below, I watch to see sweet water flow And fill the tank up to the top. The horses wander in and stop To sink their noses in the treat Of icy water, in the heat The day has brought.They move away And bob their heads, as if to say A thank you for the drink.I see Them group beneath a lonely tree, To share the little patch of shade. I take my shoes off and I wade Across the tank, to cool my feet. I listen to the creaking beat Of windmill blades, still going round, To draw this treasure from the ground!
