Michigan

M ishigama my love, I nto your water wonderland of brook trout and deer I C an hear the cherubic song of chirping robin and rustling pine. H eavenly harbors and pristine beaches shape a welcoming hand I nfused with indigo lakes and teeming streams while three G reat lakes enshroud to form a kirlian aura of rippling verve. A live for but a flicker of time, my Michigan home away from Home N urtures and readies me for the final cruise to the Wonderland of Love. Note: The word ‘Michigan’ is a Frenchification of the Ojibwe word ‘Mishigama’ which means ‘large water’.
