A Lake Poem

Last year I went on a poetry retreat to Bear Lake. I loved sitting by the lake shore in the evening, listening to the waves. It was especially fun being with my poet friends. We hope to do it again this year. 

The Lake Calls

Listening to the wind

And the calming purr of the waves

     

I’m alone

With the water, the wind and the waves.

Walking back to join my friends

The sand tugs at my sandals

Begging me to stay.
