A Lake and Me
The lake is still reflective of surrounding beauty,
reflective as it shows a forest grown,
as children grow beside it to their future.
A future that marks a path of time and space,
a time where every day is new,
a space where our eyes weep unforgiven, and
I see with open eyes those expected promises reside.
Open to the possibilities beyond the door and window;
it is the door I seek to find,
and I know when it is there right before me.
If it is closed, my hand will turn the knob
and we will see the lake together, if in its glory still.
