Morninng At The Lake
by Kate DemereeThere is such peace here
In this place of sanctuary
The water of the lake ebbs and flows
Rolling rocks to and fro
Till they find their niche
That place where they may rest
Grow moss, collect debris
Until the next time a
Large breaker moves them along the lakebed
Perhaps to some distant shore
Where they can lay in the sun
The trees grow strong and tall
With branches that seem to reach to each other
Wind moving their many arms
To brush one another
How calm and serene it is
What wonders it does for the heart, spirit and mind
Filling up again that part which work, worry
The every day hurry to grasp the straws of life depletes
A precious gift this time and place
Full of wounded hearts, once more finding life
And the joy of being

| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 06/11/03 at 03:17 PM you make it sound like Eden and you Eve, sans the apple, but with that pen in hand. |
| Posted by Ken Harnisch on 06/11/03 at 03:18 PM it seems you found your own Walden Pond..and thankfully, God sent a poet this time to describe it to the rest of us! Nice work, Kate... |
| Posted by David R Spellman on 06/11/03 at 06:31 PM Nothing like a bit of natural setting to restore the spirit or the telling about it as you do so well here. |
