Mountaintop Lake

WHAT A REFRESHING SIGHT ! Once, I went to a mountaintop lake To invigorate my worn out self, In tranquility, my eyes did take Lovely pics of the watery shelf; The colourful fish donned their shimmer With multihued scales of smooth veneer, My heart was sated by their glimmer, As clear blue water mirrored my cheer; Rejuvenated by the verdure, I sat drinking in the treetop view, Never had I seen beauty so pure, Where everything was blazing anew; Enthralled, I listened in the silence To those whispering sounds of nature, Whistling rustles confirmed God's presence, His art imprinted on each feature. 06/02/17

Really good job with this, Jo. You incorporated the key words seamlessly! I especially liked the first stanza and the concept of taking mental pictures. Congratulations on your placement. Kind regards, John.
