It's really nice around here

It’s really nice around here:

the weather’s warm, and girls are pretty,

springs merge into a larger stream

of vodka, wine, and other spirits.

The Naiads fall for simple baits,

so catching them is reasonably easy.

There is no need for nets or aqualungs.

It couldn’t be more rousing and pleasing.

When a roundelay ends don’t ask

why was it so precarious and fleeting—

just come together quietly at dusk

like fireflies that dance and softly flicker.
