lunged underground？

　　The women would come to fill their jars in the pond，and your huge black shadow would wriggle on the water like sleep struggling to wake up.

　　Sunlight danced on the ripples like restless tiny shuttles weaving golden tapestry.

　　Two ducks swam by weedy margin above their shadows，and the child would sit still and think.

　　He longed to be the wind and blow through your rustling branches，to be your shadow and lengthen with the day on the water，to be a bird and perch on your topmost twig，and to float like those ducks among the weeds and shadows.
