"My Secret Ponds"

I have a secret pond.
Would you like to come visit with me?
There are so many wonders and mysterys in the pond!
Surrounded by the tall grasses and red clover blossoms, the pond lies quietly.
The sun shines down through the tall trees, and paints reflections in the pond .
The reflections dance on the water!
Sometimes I close my eyes and I listen to the stillness of my secret pond.
I can feel the touch of the breeze as it tickles my whiskers.
The breeze is music in my heart, and makes my heart sing.
Yes , this is my secret pond.

There is magic in the pond!
Frogs splash !
Frogs leap onto lily pads and sing croaking songs.
Birdies tweets are like symphonys ---from high in the tallest trees...
Baby birds are swinging on branches and learning to fly!

Salamanders swim and play hide and seek with each other.
The mommy and daddy salamander teach their babies to swim.
Can you see the salamanders swim ?

Tad poles swim in the ponds too.
Now the baby tad poles are growing legs.
Soon the tad poles will be leaping frogs.
Do you see the tad poles?

When I go to my secret pond.. I watch the ferns stretch.
I see them unfold their tiny hands.
They unfold their hands
like the many mysterys, that unfold at the secret pond.
The ferns are waking up, from their long sleep of winter.
They are reaching for the sky.
The ferns are welcoming spring!
The ferns love the secret ponds...
There are so many wonders to display!
There is magic at my secret ponds.,,,,,,
Baby birds are learning to fly and bumble bees are gathering pollen.
And, I am chasing butterflys and shadows!
But, sometimes I just sit and listen.
I listen to the quiet at my secret pond.
I listen for new wonders to unfold.
Nitey nite
love
