Wavering Place

The sky is a cerulean type of blue Built from the dark and fluid art of the lake The phase like plants enveloped in a green hue I walk fog like through the bushes for my sake Land glows a pretty wavering, blinding sight With the sun enforcing the aura with might I go onwards into a mirage of time I can’t focus on anything that’s sublime No matter my fancy this place is fuzzy The sun blares on this faded sight that I see Where the grass is too green leaving me dizzy Air is open perfectly for me to be The lake, though very blue, isn’t what it seems One would think that you would come here to redeem But you would be delusional to say this I think normalcy is packaged sure to miss

I'm very spellbound by that last line... I feel as though there is a bigger story about the lake that you're just not telling us. I believe you know that's when you have a great poet... when one can enchant by not just what you say, but what you decide to leave out. Astounding piece!
