Sitting on the dock

 

We took off our shoes and dangled our toes
and the water was REALLY COLD
and my toes have been in shoes for so long
they are so white they practically glow in the dark.
The pond is mineral rich,
and we found a little spring under the water
that we were able to see because the minerals
were sparking and glittering
as they spouted up out of a tiny hole
in the mud at the bottom.
