White Lay On Schuman Lake the Snow

The snow lay white on Schuman lake this afternoon. The ice gleamed in the sun. I went to take a picture. It looked nice. White lay on Schuman lake the snow, I took my phone to capture where near the bank the cattails grow. Was careless in the rapture. White lay the snow on Schuman lake. I took a step – and crash did not forsee the ice would break. my foot went in with splash. On Schuman lake, the snow lay white. I wore nice shoes and suit! The mud was deep, the ice had bite. I wish I’d worn a boot. On Schuman lake white lay the snow. I hobbled to my car and drove away with dripping toe because I’d gone too far.

Love the way you reworked line 1 into the title then played with repetition, Agnes. Enjoyed this poem.
