Poem Artwork


One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.

~William Shakespeare~



~I~AM~THE~LAKE~

Into the lake, warm and deep
Where life is new, and secrets sleep
With sand and stones upon wet floor
Cradled by a silent shore

Currents run across its length
Spots of cold, that steal the breath
A fish can brush across your thigh
To welcome you for dropping by

Glistening with the morning sun
Such glory seen, by few if none
Ancient waters still and deep
Surviving droughts when heaven weeps

At the bottom of the lake
The archive of mankind's mistakes
Side by side with nature's balance
A spirit timeless, patient, gallant

I am the Lake, within my soul
Constant, changing, growing.....whole
Warm and cool, wet and dry
New each morn, as time goes by

I am the Lake, AND so are YOU
Glistening in proportation to.....
The lives we've led, our hopes and dreams
Before we're born, we know the streams

That lead to the Lake

~Lady A~
By Spirit A Lady Of The Lake

You are the lake
and you are the sun
and you are a beautiful sunset
