My Water Clock

Drip drop
Says my clock
As the water flows
Churning over troves
Of cloves and vines
Sounds sublime.

When poured coolly
Waters sing
With the times called
While birdie sings
With my water clock’s
Wonderful bubbling.

It says drip drop
Drip, a chirp
Drop, a peep
As lips sing
Something so sweet
Drip drop.

Says my clock
Drip...
Drop...
