I promised you the poem about our Lake

                                                                         THE LAKE

I am happy to have a view of the Lake.
I've lived on one before.
Now new memories I must make.
New sights and much, much more.

Sometimes the waves look very large.
Like they could really push a barge.
And look, could that be a Pirate ship?
Up and down, it seems to dip.

When the wind blows just right,
I look and a sailboat is in sight.
As it rolls and yields to the wind.
A veiled message to me sends.

When the wind churns the water just right.
And the sun shines very bright,
I see a most lovely sight.
Diamonds sparkling in the light.
