Blue Lake Happiness

There's nothing like a break from the ordinary to make us glad of it!Two weeks ago we enjoyed our annual break at a little cottage on a little lake... Where fish/minnows frolic...Past Uncle's hook  (into Grandson's net)😅And no. Uncle did not use 'fishy' as bait 😂 After the shrieks of delight this littleshimmer of a fish incited,I can't wait till he catches a big one! and sunbeams dance... and feathered friends drift by... a lake-lull is such a refreshing way to rechargeand ready me to return with fresh gladness to the beck and call of  Always Much To Do(this week's much-to-do is focused onprepping for a family-reunion we are hosting on Sunday) The blue lull of the lake bestows a gentle blissAs wishful thinking takes a break where nothing seems amissWhile in worlds far away the horn of progress blaresWhere warriors of workaday shoulder life’s load of cares The blue lull of the lake makes broken poets wholeAs soothing, wordless lyrics break on shorelines of the soulIts fluid countenance enchants the creature sighWhere fish frolic and sunbeams dance and feathered friends drift by The blue lull of the lake is pleasant companyNo fear of making a mistake with blue-lake reparteeContent to smile and nod; no critic to requiteLeaning against the knee of God in undisturbed delight The blue lull of the lake awakens purest joys Unhindered by the give and take of commerce-driven noise Far from the madding press of  hello and so long The lull of blue-lake happiness writes worship's purest song © Janet Martin I LOVE noting the shifting hues and textures of the waterreflecting the heavens and the time of day
