Lake

More to a lake than lush poetic sight, Cheerfully charming us all year around. It is - over the lost soul’s angst, deep down - Streaming soft tears through the veil of the night. Lake’s sunset glows at its own tranquil pace Beckoning artists to the willow’s shade. Hiding murky, dark secret, heavy weighed, Gravely chosen as the last resting base. Lake’s diverse disposition, taunted twist - Somber and Serene dare to interplay. Yesterday’s troubling ripples go away - Two become one in early morning mist.

Two sides to a lake, that's a unique thought, Margarita:)

Very well written, Maggie. It is a shame the ripples return. Unfortunately it doesn't take much to ripple a calm lake. My favorite line,"Beckoning artists to the willow's shade" it is indeed poetic:)
