Lynn Hanna Barany Poet Ode

Lake of the Woods

LAKE OF THE WOODS

As I sit here gazing at my view of this magnificent lake I feel inspired, and simply genuine as a human being.

It is a cool April day, very sunny with a more than gentle breeze coming through my window.
The brown grass in a few weeks will be anxious to turn a velvet green after a little
more heat, and many more raindrops.

The birch tree beside my window is patiently waiting to produce its foliage
It is a peaceful time, and a gentle time on this late Saturday afternoon.
The seagulls play in the air and welcome me to their view.

May nothing upon this earth interrupt God's beauty of this place, and may the serenity of Lake of the Woods forever rest in peace.


Lynn Barany

A lovely poem, thanks for letting me read it. - Have a nice new week. - Oxox / / Anne-Lise :) Lynn Hanna Barany October 28, 2012 at 6:47 PM Thanks, it is a beautiful place in the Kenora Ont, Canada region. We used to camp there before moving to B.C. I still miss it, but not a great place in Winter. I appreciate your comment very much. Lynn Barany
