on the lake

Life at the lake takes on a slower pace...

Hot black coffee in hand,
eggs cooked on the grill.
The view from that kitchen far exceeds the ordinary.
Geese swim by, birds soar lazily over the water.

The park begins to stir.
Golf carts zip by.  (when did people stop walking?)
Ladies wipe the morning dew off of picnic tables and benches. 
Men uncover boats, ready to head out of the docks.

The skies clear, the breeze gentle.
Another day at the lake.
