Lake Superior

Lake Superior Strong- shouldered waves crested the rocks below Split Rock Lighthouse with frothering glee- happy to be home among the orange-lychen, basalt-boulders and Gulls- high above the lake, mountainous columns of clouds drifted in legions towards Canada, against a sky so blue, no reasons were needed- where the sun peaked through, sparkling diamonds scattered across the lake……existence was enough existence was enough 08/16/10 © All Rights Reserved

Your words allow us to visit this special beach with you, Jimbo. Beautifully written! Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving. Send a piece of that chocolate pecan pie to me, eh? Would love to taste it. Also still waiting to read your book. Peace and blessings, Carolyn
