A Placid, Blue Lake

A placid, blue lake extends through the dense valley of pines and firs; its soft sky has the color of the calm water below, and it gleams as the mildest breeze makes the red poppies gently sway! I walk along it as ducks float serenely and they show no fear; how peaceful is Nature when no sounds are heard, no voices break its tranquility! The balminess of the spruces fills the nostrils with a pungent aroma that I delightfully breathe in... purifying the senses and driving out the stale air trapped in clogged lungs! And going further, I discover a small creek where the bubbling lake drains into to disappear down its narrow course; I compare my excitement to the flowing water that splashes through rocks to reach the immense sea!
