A Water Scene

High mountains reaching upward
Trying to touch the fluffy clouds
Evergreen trees below these mountains
On the other side the same view
The lake is very calm and clear
Boaters rowing enjoying the view

An island is spotted-it is long
With evergreen trees growing
The ground is flat and patchy
No one dwells here
It is a breeding ground
For the birds to nest

Being a nature lover I really enjoyed reading this. Rowing out on calm clear lake surrounded by beautiful scenery, is my idea of bliss. Thanks for sharing your beautiful poem :-)

Well written imagery, Darlene! There is an important message here - some places in nature should be left undisturbed, so wildlife can increase without human interference. Lovely scene! (((HUGS)))
