Between Two Lakes

(a Kyrielle variant poem)

 

Between two lakes where solace thrives,

the waterlilies come alive;

a child saw them all aglow

while in a row boat years ago.

 

A myriad of blooms to see-

snow-white and stilled, so Heavenly;

the years would pass - the winds would blow;

so little did the child know.

 

The movement of the boat with ease-

the creak of oars in quiet breeze-

the scent of pines - the water's flow...

Yes, I am blessed from years ago.

 

Psalm 29:11  The Lord blesses His people with peace.

Psalm 23:2  ...He leads me beside quiet waters.

 

(A very vivid memory from childhood.  Our family spent many summers in

Lac Du Flambeau, Wisconsin.   This was a passage between 2 lakes in a

chain of lakes where you had to shut the motor off and row through hundreds

of lily pads. )
