he saw his first fountain today
he seemed pensive
quietly watching
the droplets shower
around him
he dropped a penny into the pool
his little fingers closing around the
copper piece till
his father leaned him
over the edge and nudged
the coin into the water
and as it gently floated
to the bottom
made a wish:
eternal happiness
for the little person snuggled up
on his shoulder,
now smiling
