Tears on Love's Lake
The cool blue lake, motionless reflection.
A tear falls, the drop quietly hits the water,
creating a circle, that shimmers outward,
in endless movement,
in tranquil connection.
Many tears in long past years,
have filled this lake so serene,
stopping to quench a thirst in the summer heat,
to reflect upon where life has taken them,
a soft cry in the night,
washing the soul clean.
Upon one horizon the sun, upon the other the moon.
The cool lake becomes a painting in scenic view.
A tear falls, the drop quietly hits the water,
creating a circle, that shimmers outward,
in endless movement,
the tranquility surrounding the heart,
reflecting back to you.
Many years, long past tears,
have filled this lake in love
A tear falls, the drop quietly hits the water,
creating a circle, that shimmers outward,
in endless movement,
in tranquil connection,
then,
just then,
a smile,
reflecting above.
