Day of Brightness

The water looks cold
deep and eerie
what in its depths 
to make  it so  so scary

The weed frongs
wave with the flow
dark and  misguiding
not a good place to go

the  swans float by
head tucked under wing
ducks and geese
doing the same thing

it's been a busy day
many people out in a boat
some you  row yourself
others  you sit and gloat

A little cafe 
with a lovely view
selling home made cakes
coffee and milkshakes too

the clouds pass by
the moon trying to shine
looks like its 10 layers up
but all will  be fine

when daybreak comes
the sun rises and so
A day of brightness
sunshine aglow.

The lake looks inviting
urges  you too
hire a boat
find the real you

so come  on everybody
let's go to the lake
A lovely walk with
an ice to partake

lie on the grass
relax in the sun
let tension pass 
another memory has begun.
