THE TALES OF THE LAKE

THE TALES OF THE LAKE

LEGEND  HAS IT MANY MOONS
AGO LAKE BLED WAS LUSH 
PASTURE AND THE FAIRIES 
LOVED TO PLAY AND DANCE
AND SING WHEN THE MOON WAS FULL
FROLICKING ALONG ON THE LAND AND SHEPHERDS 
LET THERE SHEEP EAT THE GRASS 
AND DESTROY THERE HOME  THE FAIRIES 
GOT MAD AND PUT CURSE ALL OVER THE LAND
THEY FLOODED THE VALLEY  AND LEFT ONLY
BLED ISLAND AND KNOW AS BLED LAKE TODAY

THE TALES OF THE LAKE 
   

THE CHURCH HAS BELL AND TRAGIC
HAPPEN  ONE DAY  OF WOMAN
WHO LOST HER HUSBAND WAS 
KILLED BY THIEVES SHE THEN SAVED 
HER MONEY TO BUY A BELL IN HIS
MEMORY  AND SHE BOUGHT THE BELL
BRINGS TO THE TO THE LAKE  PUTS
IN THE BOAT AND TRAGIC HAPPEN
A STORM CAME UP WITH LOT RAIN 
AND WIND AND THE BOAT AND BELL
AND EVERY ON THE BOAT DROWNED
TO BOTTOM OF THE LAKE SO POPE
HEARS OF THE STORY HE BLESSED A 
NEW BELL AND SENT TO THE CHURCH
AND LEGEND HAS IT ON A QUIET NIGHT
WHEN THE MOON IS FULL YOU CAN HEAR THE BELL
RINGING  FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE LAKE
THE TALES OF THE LAKE
