gentle the waves lap
circles in the water
as fish grab a fly
beauty surrounds me
mist swirls and twirls
silvery tree reach up
to skies of azure

peace of near silence
you can hear a leaf fall
deep blue and purle
the lake stretches out
enclosed by craigy hills
nestling happily in valley
clouds floating lazily by
far away from lifes woes

I sit and listen
to the pure notes ringing
as a blackbird sings its delight
let this lake remain in peace
far from the toils and coils
the rush and bustle of man
lets leave it to slumber
