Lakeview 2, Joan Beeman
LAKESIDE

Sitting on the lakeside
imagination takes a journey
beyond the horizon
to the river in Southern Illinois
a time long ago

A break from learning
escape from responsibilities
letting the water splash all
worries

Water draws peace within
a time of reflection
allowing two lovers time
to themselves

Leaving this lakeside meditation
we go back to our daily life
refreshed and inspired
