I PASS bluebells swaying in the breeze
Then my eyes are enthralled by the sight
Of Cosmeston Lakes coloured in blue
Mirroring the warm mid-May sky
With ribs of white cloud high above
The clear wrinkled water of the lake.
I spot swans, blackbirds, ducks and seagulls too
Who could ask for a more wonderful view?
A swan chases ducks out of the water
Where they flap wings to show their ire.
A child feeds a swan by the side of the lake
As dogs and their owners head towards the woods
Or on the boardwalk by golden reeds.
It's far away from the troubles of the world
I relax and let the sun warm my brow
Forgetting all woes...contented for now.
