BEFORE MY EYES
The vision I saw will dwell in my mind
to beyond the veil itself,
So powerful was the scene I saw so
full of untold wealth,
Not in worldly value as known by man but
beauty beyond compare,
Created by the cold of winter by the blending
of cold and warm air.
The warmer lake heaved as the wind made
mists of the waves,
Like restless souls rising from their icy cold
watery graves.
As the mist arose from that powerful lake,
snow clouds spawned
In great haste as the wind whipped them on
this cold wintery morn.
Dark grey water lamented beneath each harsh
breath that blew,
For the clouds they formed hid their world from
a sky of bright blue.
Awesome was the lake and ethereal the sight
of that vision before me,
That is why the apparition will be in my mind
throughout eternity.
