The Pathway to Eternity

As you walk down by the Lake

Just as the Sun begins to brake

The Clouds now moving across the Sky

Drifting slowly as they pass by

The old Jetty, quiet and serene

Stands majestically, ever still, as it has always been

As you walk along its path to the Gazebo at the end

All light up, a forever friend

Walking slowly to the gateway, you enter in

And see the water, so blue so thin

That you can through it to the bottom of the Lake

A rippling sensation a water break

As you look down you start to think

If you jump in you will surely sink

To the darkness right down below

And into to oblivion you would go

Is Paradise on the other side, that’s what you may believe exists

Or is you mind just playing tricks

Why spoil what is truly a work of art

With malicious thoughts, a world apart

Just revel in the beauty you see before your eyes

Blue water rippling its gentle sighs

Take a moment, sit ye down

Wallow in the tranquillity, nary a sound

A Seagull lands upon the roof

Walks around feeling quiet aloof

As he coos his immortal tune

You look skyward and still see the moon

Disappearing on the horizon far away

Whilst the Sun has welcomed a bright new day

The lights on the pathway now disappear

But will be back tonight, never fear

It’s time to rest, to fall asleep

By the Lake with its soul so deep

The water has worked its magic charm

Now sleep well you will not come to harm
