By the lake

Here by the lake, with the trees
falling generously inwards
casting shade across her
brow. She lies feet draped over
the edge, like the curve of a
swans neck, feet in the water.
A rush of wind moves the trees,
lily pads push to the surface,
pink flowers with green tails
swim almost unnoticed.
Here by the lake, she takes the
water in her hands cupped although
to pray and allows it to slip
through her fingertips, like a stream
flowing back to the sea.
A buzzard hovers in the sky,
the earth sculpts her pose to perfection
her fingers touch a piece of bark
she feels its many faces
new and old-perfection and fault.
Here by the lake, a song has
begun to chant in her ear,
her hair glistens in the sun
the earth spins particularly fast.
Flashes of red, swirls of gold
and blue and red.
