Water’s unknown rival

Water’s unknown rival
Water trickling after a late night storm
It flows in and out of crevasses
The smooth, shining water reflects off the chosen rocks
They glisten unlike any others
The reeds sway to and fro
Bushes move almost rhythm like
Blades of grass reach their full potential
glowing an earthly green
people come, people go
never stop and take a look at God’s awesome creation
suddenly without warning, something comes along
unlike the flowing water and glowing grass
unlike the glistening rocks and rhythmatic bushes
it locks on targets and catches them in its deadly grasp
costs about 40cents and is bright yellow
we’ve tried time and time again
but no one can stop the plastic packet
