Our Family Lake

Our Family Lake

 

It was a special lake

Where we camped sometimes

And it relaxed us those days

With fresh air and sunshine

 

At the lake there was wildlife

Including deer and hogs

And beavers we'd see sometimes

Building their dam with logs

 

There was a cabin too

Where we got our sleep

And where we cooked our food

When it was time to eat

 

There were also boats there

That the adults sometimes used

And we fished everywhere

For a fish fry soon 

 

Sometimes we went exploring

On bright sunny days

With not a second boring

As we hiked the time away

 

There was an old cedar tree

Growing near the lake

And a picnic table underneath

Was where we always ate

 

We left the lake each time

With smoke in our hair

And each year we opined

The experience beyond compare
