Day 2

Prompt: Write a poem about a place, its mood and atmosphere.

Great Lakes

Tyres against gravel,

Winding roads ahead.

Silence of the summer

Sweat, heat, dread.

Indian Royal Grandeur,

This jewel brighter.

Deep Blue Sapphire,

Skies blanket lighter.

Friend, Imagine this,

Stone, mud, tar

Mountains pay respect,

The lake below reflects

A mirror: her body,

Peaceful, quiet thought.

Sweet tasting water,

Respite, she brought.

Her glamour unforgettable,

Her character noble,

Her sombre temper,

Immortal, crystal, soulful...
