Evening Quandary

THERE is water flowing

From the padre’s garden.

There is water flowing

Under the solid gate.

There is water flowing

From the keyhole.

There is water flowing,

Wat —er,

Drip, drip, drip, drip,

From the padre’s garden.

It is not raining.

The stars are all laughing.

There is water flowing,

From the padre’s garden.

Ten o’clock in the evening,

From the keyhole.

Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip.

If it had rained today,

I would say it is the patter of sky feet

In the padre’s garden.

There is water flowing,

From the padre’s garden—

Everywhere.
