#lakeside
The silence surrounds Laying on the green grass Staring at the setting sun, it's a reddish round A Twite's trill treads all around A benign breeze breaks, helping the wafting wherry The perpetual pier gathered a gleeful gaggle The lulling lake a serene sight beauty bound A dream domicile

The Lake
A lakeside egret, Curiously watches a peerie fish; Forgets killer instinct.

The moment of self-oblivion
I do not want to be a fishing float adrift on the waters of existence, allowing myself to accept stagnation, bobbing ever buoyant to the ebb and flow of the mundane. Reel me in and cast me again into living waters. Wash away doubts and anxiety — the fears that snag my line, my vexation. Give me peaceful rest in fresh water that is replenished by Your rain.

Fishing Float
Tear the flesh from my bones Til my soul is alone And my body's a lake Fed from red-running holes. You are stagnant and cold Like the moss on a stone And a cesspool for sinners Who you let come and go.
