A flower picked
death warrant signed
A piece of fruit
poorly designed
When does a walk
Become a hike?
With the sweat on your brow?
the blisters on your feet?
Or the pretentious manner
of an enthusiast?
6 random words
Motorboats shred the lake to ribbons
Perfect summer bliss
Life without need of reason
A home away from home
only for one select season

All photos this week taken by the mouse
I am a lovely relaxed lake
My surface smooth, unrippled
Then come these hoons in motorboats
And turn it all a’whipple
I hope you weren’t one of these water hoons?
You don’t know about whipples? ….

I’ve seen jaws too many times to go in the water.
I’m the hapless lifeguard watching the children disappear one by one 😉
