Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

The lake was cold in preparation for winter freeze
Fall air painted my cheeks rosy with a chilly touch
And the leaves rattled their secrets on skeletal trees
As the swans glided by displaying sheer perfection

Rainbow fish sliced the water in a taunting dance
Graceful as they beckoned me to come eat with them
Their vibrant colors shimmered and glowed on sleek bodies
Just before they dove back to their hidden homes

The fire sparked glowing fireflies into black clouds
And a young bear barked for its mother’s attention
The Loons laughed crazily, and haunted my dreams
Then quiet descended to wrap around a silent world

Night fell like a wooly blanket and covered me with comfort
Cradled close in the arms of the Northern Lights.
Until I woke to the sun raucously shouting my name
Demanding my attention to all that surrounded me

Early morning daylight caressed the mountain on the horizon
It posed in its splendor, primping in all her finery
Draped in a lollipop pink and bridal white fancy dress
Assured that I would marvel in awe of her beauty

She was right.
