WONDER IN THE WATER
WONDER IN THE WATER



Standing by the lakeside, deep
In the thoughts of days gone by,
In bright moonlit night as the
Gentle ripples brightly shine,

What do I chance upon here,
As I view moon’s reflection?
Moonspots rearrange themselves
Into a faint human face.

Do I recognize the eyes?
Do I know the curve of lips?
Who is sending me that smile,
And, true, a heavenly kiss?

Oh, yes. It is you my dear,
Just as you were that first night,
When we walked here hand in hand,
And, instantly, you were mine.

Yes, I know you’re calling me.
No, I won’t wait a moment.
Here I come my darling, wait.
You and I will yet be one.

But, what? Who’s holding me there?
Whose pull is that draws me back?
Who prevents me from my chance
To once more meet whom I lost?

And, where have you disappeared?
What cloud has snatched you from me?
Yet, in this darkness who’s there,
Beckoning me from behind?

It is at this moment I
Realize your wondrous being.
From the skies to lake waters,
You came to me just to tell:

You are with me all the time.
You are a part of my life.
You want me to keep going
In my journey, O dear wife.
