Oh Lake O
Oh Lake O
Water surrounds
Birds chirp
River flows out to the lake
Steady
High
Trunks of trees under water
Top of trees like cauliflower
Ebb
Flow
Sailboats don’t notice
But the old lighthouse almost kisses the blue water
Clouds look down on the blue
Wide like the ocean
Harbouring life
North American border born of past glaciers
Flocks of birds glide by
Swans dive, devouring the rich bounty
The air is peaceful
The feeling is divine
I call it home...
