PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

lately i have been

valuing my net worth

by how many lakes

i have swam naked in

someday i would like

to be a millionaire



deer pond today

though technically

as i slipped on the rock

and fell in, but i was on

my way for a short swim



it's raining bugs on the lake

taking torques of scotch and

eating the food of camping kings:

ramen noodles



it's my favorite time when

the sun is behind a mountain



all is quiet but

the whispering of birds and

the wheezing of mosquitoes



biking in was tough, but fun



i'm overheating with this sweater on

but it kind of keeps the bugs at bay



burnt orange clouds are

reflecting off the lake



i feel lucky it is not raining

i would be luckier if

you were here
