Tall green trees meeting the sky... Sparkling dark cold water... The sun begins to shine. I push my small canoe from shore gently stepping in. A quiet balance... I paddle around the bend. Alone on the lake... not a soul in sight. I lean back and trail my fingers through the northern waters. Sighing, I rest. The sun is warm, yet the air is chilly. Ducks look at me tentatively, wondering. The lake is the same as I remembered. Comforting me. Welcoming me. Giving to me. My heart holds this lake close when I am far away. My mind relives the simple, sweet memories. You were still alive. I am thankful that I have... My canoe. My lake. My memories of you.

Lovely Sheri, wonderfully descriptive. I felt like being there on the lake myself. What would life be without the great " Outdoors".
