POEM - WALKING BY THE LAKE - BENBROOK LAKE, TEXAS
Sunrise over Benbrook Lake, Texas |
Not the trees and the lake.
I just passed them today,
And I have seen others like them.
Today was different,
Walking by the lake.
As I looked at the morning mist,
Hanging over the lake,
Hiding the trees on the other side,
I wished that she was there.
Not too long ago that
Would not have happened.
Now, everything I see or do,
I want to share with her.
The big squirrel,
The leaf covered trail,
The sunlight on the water,
The fog that replaced it.
All is not complete until
She can see it,
Hear it,
Taste it,
Feel it,
Sense it,
With me.
That went through my mind,
Because,
Today was different,
Walking by the lake.
