Lavender and Roses
Sunday, March 2
Morning Escape
Down at the lake,
Water lapping,
Sunlight dancing.
Sparrows fighting over the last crumbs of bread,
The ducks fed, they drink,
Look hopefully for more
Mill around waiting,
Slowly depart.
The lake is quiet again.
I'm sitting below the normal water mark,
A dry summer - the lake a meter down,
Algae dead on the beach,
Lake grass under the water,
Exposed to sunlight gain new life.
Around me,
Ducks preening,
Children settling
A peaceful sunny start,
Patiently waiting for rain.
Yes, on Wed morning down at the lake, I forgot my camera. Which maybe explains why I had time to reflect.
