Melody Lake

The lake is alive with a world of its own
Reflecting all that is within and without
Above and below

Shadow copy to the moon
Mirror of the sun
Prism to the rays

Glitter, sparkle, diamond faceted by day
Dark and moody liquid beams by night
Lunar lake of lovers liquid
Lavishing luminous glow and flow

Little wonder, that love flourishes on its shores
Skipping stones, counting daisy petals
Carving names on the shore line trees

Gliding in canoes and little boats with oars
Reciting poetry in gentle whispers
Over the surface of melody lake

Blankets and baskets with morsels to eat
Lying on earth's palm,  held captive to the sky
Dancing clouds and birds as they fly

Ripples of nipples that surface and rise
Life beneath sucking the air it supplies
Catching the gnats and bugs passing by

Water swarming with creatures with eyes
Dashing and splashing with gentle surprise
Teaming with movement, the lake is alive
