At June Lake

Reflections 
resting on the water 
are buoyant, but, calm with weightlessness
From above, the ancient moon seeks reassurance,
releasing her cloud-garments of opalescence_
Now, radiance on mirror's surface
invites a second look
at June Lake

Robert Gruhn Date: 6/2/2014 9:15:00 PM Hi Carrie, beautiful piece here, you know, I have been to June Lake near Mammoth Mountain off US 395 many times camping and fishing, is this the same June Lake you write of? My good friend John Frederickson owns the June Lake Marina there! Beautiful Place! Login to Reply Carrie Richards Date: 6/2/2014 9:18:00 PM Thanks for asking, Robert! Yes.....we used to camp there often. I was born and raised in California.....now living in the far northern part of the state. But know the area around Bishop, Lone Pine very well! I'm glad someone recognized the fact that this is a California Lake! :)
