Frog swims slow in the midday sun
Ducks paddle low in bank shadow then are gone
All the spring goes in and out with the tide
Brown river flow gentle, gentle
Bittern blow their bottle-neck boom
Herons shuffle the Egrets for room
Moor hen nestle their nests with pride
Brown river flow gentle, gentle
Water turns in pools mercurial and blind
The Ash burns in the Sun, the willow wills
the wind’s mind
Water boatmen doing back-stroke from side to
side
Brown river flow gentle, gentle
