If You Live on a Lake

If you live on a lake, you see sunrises and sunsets that make you stop and stare in wonderment that such beauty can be real.
 
If you live on a lake, you know the dazzle of a million sparkling waves in the sun.
 
If you live on a lake, you see the lights blink on across the water, and you wonder about the lives that are lived over there.  You wonder if they think of you, too. 
 
If you live on a lake, you see vast darkness in the middle of the night, and you feel wonderfully alone.
 
If you live on a lake, you know the turn of seasons intimately, and know all the delicate intricacies that the changing light can bring to the lake's surface- be it water or ice.
 
If you live on a lake, you are lucky.

Very dry, and right now it feels more like fall than summer.  Even the wind in the leaves sounds like fall.  I think it's because of how very, very dry everything is right now.
