The Cold Hard Beautiful Morning
Early this beautiful morning
Black Lake is still
smoke settles above the water
red and golden colours everywhere
reflections on the glassy surface
But it's gotten colder out here
and thoughts of winter chills my bones
autumn's now so near
always coming hard and pretty--with a sting
like the mood of a mercurial woman
waking up too early Sunday morning
But my friend the Loon suddenly comes to call
today he seems especially inspired;
singing out his song
telling me how alive I am
and that nothing really matters
but this moment—here and now

very cool comment Susan, I like your comments a lot, thank you....yeah I love the autumn lake in the morning scenario, but it's been done a million times over and puts my feet to sleep to be honest; flowery description, colours everywhere, beauty peace yada yada yada, lol....it is pretty by the lake but it's also cold, I suppose that could be exhilarating so I tried to bring another element to make it more three dimensional as well...thanks for taking the time to read my friend, glad you liked the mercurial woman touch as well...have a super Sunday.
