Lake of the Sky

Posted on April 5, 2017 by whimsygizmo

..

When you slip on
……..your cobalt best,
…………..I find myself on your shore.

There are small kingdoms
……..here, sandcastles of
…………..my own small making.

Do you see the geese ripple
……..your surface? They etch
…………..a new language – I am learning.

I shall wear your indigo smile
……..and swear the world
 …………..a better place in bright blue skin.

 

..
NaPoWriMo day 5 has us channeling Mary Oliver. Come play!

    I don’t know Mary Oliver, but I like your poem.

    I like the thought of a new language on the water’s surface.
