Alone, not lonely

Calm, serene, greenish water.
Clear, cool and deep

Ripples gentle floating away
In perfect rhythm and beat

Chill, misty mountain breeze
Ruffling your hair

The reeds of wet bamboo
Entwined, bound together

Forms the boat on which I lie
On my back gazing up

Floating gently, rocked to sleep
Drowsy in the lap of that wonderful lake

Time loses it's vice-like grip
Nature takes over and I'm drunk

Sweet stupor and daze-like dreams
Take over as I give in and sleep
