The Lake Stars

I've included my prose for this entry, it started as a haiku,but i converted it to a 
haibun

THE (lake) STARS

the spring sun has started thawing the frozen countryside. I spend the afternoon 
gliding
across a sheet of glass on lengthy points. silence banished by joyous bellows as the 
ice
is scarred and chipped. time slides by while smiles are shared and glossy eyes come 
in
line. Doom lingers in the rays warming more than the frigid lake. fingers meet. hearts
skip beat. the sweeping off of feet. unnoticed. the moon chases the sun from the 
sky. the
population dwindles to two. me and you. the evening breeze chills the landscape. 
we look
into the mirror below us and see that we are standing in the heavens.



frozen reflections
capturing infinity
starry sky on ice
