Canteen

 

You’re here and I can feel you

Drifted in on a breeze

And I do

Welcome you
To do whatever you please

 

I went to get some water

This trip’s longer than you think

I float past others who see nothing

And turn on my kitchen sink

 

Water water everywhere

But sometimes you just need someone to care

To quench your thirst

As heavy hearts often burst

And isn't it’s nice to have a drink now and then

On a warm dark night

With an unexpected friend?

 

Here, take some water from my canteen

It’s primo - filled from the Eternal Spring

Here, take it all

If you know what I mean.

 

Do you?
