Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
At a place so tranquil,
It's almost as if
It's untouched by humans,
Yet humans visit everyday.
Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
On a towel,
Chair,
Or even just the plain sand,
And listen to the noises,
That, that particular lake makes.
Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
By yourself,
Or with some friends,
Playing games on land,
Or swimming in the water,
Till the sky goes black.
Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
Lounging about,
Staring at the glistening water,
As the sun sets,
And the woods as your backdrop.
Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
And played with the wildlife,
Catching frogs,
Bugs,
And fish,
Then letting them go.
Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
And let your worry's,
Float away,
On the currents,
Like pieces of driftwood.
Lakes Are Everywhere.
From sea,
To shining sea,
And every country,
And every place in between.
Have You Ever Sat By A Lake?
