Stepped in a puddle

Stepped in a puddle

 

 

The notions that came were subtle,

how deeps that upcoming puddle?

Do I run and jump to test its depths?

Is it worth my sped-up steps?

 

Subtle thoughts about the notion,

is it as deep as the Atlantic Ocean?

As deep as a mountain stream?

Do I go under pop up and scream?

 

Standing in it will I slowly or quickly sink?

Is it deep enough to scoop up a drink?

As quick as these notions came, they went,

my step in it made a waveless dent.
