Wonderously refreshing cool and clear
A joy to behold when the water lilies appear
Trickling steam, still glass lake
Eternities spent lying awake
Returning to home there's me drawing up the rear
Author notes
As a child I could never spend enough time near the lake, trousers rolled up wading in, catching frogs and minnows, and never feeling hungry when mom called for dinner.

Nice,
One of my fav element is water, by far it calms me.
I don't know, maybe we have so much in us.
