The Lake

Bright blue dragon flies, Iridescent against green grass, Flower scented winds. Shade trees offer rest, Old man sits alone on bench, Recalling lost youth.

The older we get, the more we reminisce, we just all hope that God will grant us enough time to be with our beloved husbands or wives, the men or women that mean the world to us. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
