The Water Fountain

Your deep dark, green moss is as slippery as a wet tile,
Your fresh water pours down like rain on a stormy night,
Your peaceful sound of dripping liquid makes me smile,
And your earthy smell, oh how it gives me light,
When the rainbow lorikeets come to rest,
Come to play, come to drink,
It makes me feel the best,
Sometimes I even sneak a peak, at a bird who thinks that they can wink!
