Down by the Wethersfield moss
where oak trees hide
a small path
where only they
Pauline, Casey, and Susie
could find
Among the moist leaves
and lemon yellow
dandelions
Down by the Wethersfield moss
past the morning glories
the small path
led to a spring
Bottomless
Still
The tree,
Down by the Wethersfield moss
where Pauline and Casey
jumped
from the tallest branch
of the elm
Splashing
and thrashing
into the dense, dark
blue
Through the path ,
Down by the Wethersfield moss
they dragged along Susie
whose eyes made you
fall
into the deep
azure that they are
To the water
the abysmal water
Giggling
and screaming
as they went
At the spring
Down by the Wethersfield moss
blinded by the wisps of
white water
drenching their faces
they were all
oblivious
to what had occurred.
Through the path,
Pauline and Casey ran
Leaving the spring,
when Susie didn't come back
up
Her eyes
now part of the
obscure hue
Down by the Wethersfield moss.
