Ode to the Great Lake
By crisundomiel aka Aslan's Chick
I stand there and I lose myself,
Looking at your grandness.
Your gleaming, deep, blue water
Overtakes my gaze.
I wish I could be just like you,
Warm and serene under the gentle sun.
I wish I could flow with you,
And let the soft breeze envelop me.
Oh, if only I could be just like you,
If only I could set adrift.
My life would have a meaning
And I would be finally whole.
Come and take me,
Sweep me off my feet.
Caress me, fill me.
Oh great lake
Please set me free.
