There's a boat on the lake where she goes to escape
all of life's cares and pain.
Splendor beyond her imagination's unlimited landscape
etched neatly inside her brain.
No place on earth could hold the splendid majesty
of the water smooth as glass.
Those reflections of nature's untainted beauty
help her despair to pass.
Colors of all hues cascade before her weary eyes
and sunlight warms her cooling heart.
Content absorbed by all those things life denies
she loses herself wishing never to depart.
There's a boat on the lake that chants her name
and she heeds it's seductive song.
Each time it is different, yet always the same
her place where she will always belong.
