Gary Smith Poet Rhyme

Lolling About

Lolling about, down by the lake 

Just watching the clouds scudding by.

Surrounded by fells, a vision of heaven,

There is no one as happy as I.

I hear little waves lapping the shore,

With hypnotic rhythm, they sing.

In somnolent bliss I happily drift,

Lost in the mood that they bring.
