I've been thinking about the difference between a puddle and a crater-sized pothole which has recently been filled to street level with three days worth of torrential rains. There is a difference, you know. A puddle is a benign, friendly sort of scooped out place of earth or road, which has collected to its bosom enough frollicking sprinkles to delight a neighborhood of galoshes-shod schoolchildren. A pothole deceives its victims with both the depth and severity of its formation. Its contents had been angry, pent-up storms, which now conceal with smooth-topped waters the rage they just spewed forth. My husband drove through one a couple of days ago, with the passenger side bearing the brunt. "Aaaaah! A pothole!" I exclaimed, to which he replied, "No, it was a puddle." "Don't look now," I added, "but we just left a wheel back there in that puddle..." Oh, the puddles and potholes of life. If only we could enjoy the one without occasionally mistaking it for the other.
