A Green Frog

Am I really as simple as Cool Water suggests? Can I find contentment in using our grandson’s little blue watering can? He’s fourteen now, and so was seven when this was written. He has since outgrown the watering can, but I haven’t. I still use it every chance I get, and find it as cheering and heartening as ever. He thinks I’m crazy; I like that, because it’s further proof that I am as simple as Cool Water suggests. And if I were a green frog, or a frog of any color, I’d jump right in — to your consciousness.
