If I could be anything today.
I would be a lake.
Children would jump
Noses clinched
Into my cold waters
And scream in joyous delight
Boys of course
Would have to show their strength
And "get used" to me
Just to show off
And as they all
Gathered 'round fire's glow
Near my edge
Boasts and future's prophesy
Would travel in the evening sky
While reflections and stones 'a skippin'
Measured skills of unparalleled seriousness
Yeah,
I would be lake

great pairing - love the soft feel to the image.

Beautiful words to match the beautiful photo. The poem enhances the imagery that missing from the photo - the children swinging from a rope and landing in the water, the fire to warm them up...yet, they are there in the dreaminess of the photo. Thank you for sharing your masterpieces with us, Mark.

So glad I stopped to read this before heading out the door.

Thanks.

thanks again!

Mark I saw this ages ago & am surprised I didn't leave a comment, must of thought that any comment I would leave wouldn't do it justice. See, still no comment, but I have looked at it 4 times while leaving no comment. Commonly referred to as speachless.tony

You manage to get such amazing mood into your work, kudos to you! Very impressive!
