Lake-Shore Art Poem by M.L. Emmett

Lake-Shore Art

Rating: 4.5


Silver birches line the lake
bone-pale before the evergreens
shoreline a rip rap
of gnarled and twisted stumps
weathered grey - the windfall waste
of trees already sawed and burned
in winters past.

Faint melon light of sunset
quivering
refracted in the rain
of dusk and the lake's
darkening glass.
