Song of the Lake The lake is singing songs to me, About the way things used to be, Before men came upon the scene. When everything was still pristine. It sings about each creek that pours Into its depths from other shores And carries cold, ice melted flow Into these waters down below. The hills and mountains rise around Tall, layered tiers of higher ground. Well timbered;populated by Wild animals and birds that fly. I watch to see what might appear And hear their voices in my ear, Accompanying the melody This moving water sings to me. It speaks about the long ago And though it's not the same, I know, It's beauty has survived since then To keep us coming back again! Betty Lou Hebert |

Noah: We always try to spend some time at Upper Priest Lake in northern Idaho in the summer. I was thinking about it and wrote this poem. It's a relatively untouched spot. You can only get in there by boat, or by hiking! Betty Lou Hebert |
