Below the Surface

Ripples may exist on the surface of the lake But there is stillness, a calmness residing beneath Within there, there is you, the beauty That who brings serenity and foundation to my life Lady of my lake You are my current today You are my flowing tomorrow And I am only now realizing You were my past My eternal embodiment of love Despite the rainstorms and windstorms There again, beneath the surface you remain My source for strength and undying vitality You are who brings serenity and foundation to my life

Your "lady of the lake" sounds like she makes your life complete, Michael. How lucky you are to have the "current" of her love flowing through you as you weather the storms of life. Beautifully written. Love, Carolyn
