As I, in the forest, stood Pondering nature's wonder I peered up at the canopy, so lush and green Of which, I dallied under... Hopping through the foliage That stretched across the ground A chipmunk hurried to a log And alit upon it with a bound... Underneath the stratosphere High atop a tree A large black crow, I did hear Calling down to me... Proceeding to the beach, so warm My feet, prints in the sand, did form As I dug in with my toes, I felt the sun, so warm My mood was of repose... Seagulls, high above, did play Hunting, calling, all the day Upon the evening tide Bubbles of white foam did ride... The summer felt just like a friend Although, I knew, it, soon, would end My visit to this paradise Concluded in a way, so nice... I knew I would return, again To the shores of Lake Michigan.

The Shores of Lake Michigan
As I, in the forest, stood Pondering nature's wonder I peered up at the canopy, so lush and green Of which, I dallied under... Hopping through the foliage That stretched across the ground A chipmunk hurried to a log And alit upon it with a bound... Underneath the stratosphere High atop a tree A large black crow, I did hear Calling down to me... Proceeding to the beach, so warm My feet, prints in the sand, did form As I dug in with my toes, I felt the sun, so warm My mood was of repose... Seagulls, high above, did play Hunting, calling, all the day Upon the evening tide Bubbles of white foam did ride... The summer felt just like a friend Although, I knew, it, soon, would end My visit to this paradise Concluded in a way, so nice... I knew I would return, again To the shores of Lake Michigan.
