A Day On the Lake
Early in the morning
With a cup of coffee in hand,
I head out back to the old boat
Awaiting my command.
As I untie the rope
Excitement rushes over me,
For across the water,in the distance
The morning glow of sunrise I see.
The day is just perfect
I can't wait to get out there,
And feel the sun upon my face
And breathe in ther calming air.
The water is sparkling like diamonds
As they shimmer , glitter, and prance,
Oh, this lake is so beautiful
Doing it's early morning dance.
It's going to be a good day
Already I can tell,
I will be out here sailing
Until I hear the evening bell.
Then I will head for home
Today will be a memory,
But I will never forget
The pleasure the lake gave to me.
