The Lake
Lie stillAs virgin, unblemished as you can,
for fear some sudden updraft
unbidden
will frighten her away.
Soon
You'll hear the steady cadence of approach.
Close now
Yes, I'm here!
You feel the upward rush of her climb.
Capricious Creature!
She is bound for another and you,
you are once again only almost.
