Love
comes in soft waves—or bold,
and
leans in toward our shores—
keeping
and staying, freeing and swaying,
ebbing—
Chasing
us, when we need to be chased,
holding
us, starlit, and
echoing
long
after
night
falls.

Lake
Chelan is a lake in central Washington and is one of my favorite places to
be. My family has done a lot of living,
laughing and loving while visiting there.

Very nice poem in praise of love and a lovely lake.
Love the motion and the sound of the lake. It's like you know it's Song.
I like the comparison of love to the ebb and flow of your lake
Lovely poem. Lakes, seas, etc all seem to call to the blue in us.
Lovely almost lullaby :-)
I love the lake as metaphor and how you have hidden the acrostic there in plain view...
Very nicely done, Jennifer -serene.
Nicely done in acrostic form!
I can feel the beauty of the lake, whispering its song.
A grand tribute to Lake Chelan and to memories.
Didn't see the acrostic until brudberg pointed it out. Lovely and creative my clever friend.
Memories entwined with nature, forever to cherish!!
A beautiful place, evidently.
Beautifully done.
Your poem is like a soft, tender whisper. 💛

I can feel the beauty of the lake, whispering its song.
