Are you, interested in poetry?
- Actually, I am, kind of.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- I write poetry.
I keep it all in this notebook.
Secret notebook.
- Oh, you're a poet.
- Yeah.
That's great.
- Would you like to hear one?
- Sure, sure.
It doesn't really rhyme, though.
That's okay. I kind of like them
better when they don't.
Yeah, me too.
Okay. This one's called "Water Falls".
Two words, though.
"Water Falls", okay.
Okay.
"Water Falls".
"Water falls from the bright air.
"It falls like hair,
"falling across a young girl's shoulders.
"Water falls,
"making pools in the asphalt,
"dirty mirrors with clouds
and buildings inside.
"It falls on the roof of my house.
"It falls on my mother, and on my hair.
"Most people call it rain."
That's a beautiful poem.
- You really liked it?
- Yeah, I really do.
I think it's beautiful.
"Water Falls". Thank you.
