Glacier
Glacier
On a hike through Glacier National park
I carved on a tree’s bark
The lake water was fresh and cold
The birds sang the stories they were told
The trees were of various shades of green
Sunglasses would be so keen
The glaciers were a beautiful sight
Rays from the sun were so bright
Despite the people, a Mountain Jay perched
For its prey it searched
On a path I sidestepped some scat
A hissing sound came I thought I heard a cat
Fresh glacier water ran into a lake
Oh! Look, I see a snake
I took off my socks and shoes
For if I did not cross, I would loose
I waded through the water
For I am Mother Nature’s daughter
My family and I sat on a log talking and laughing
I waded back through the water, it wasn’t as shocking
As I hike away a frown forms on my face
For I do not want to leave this place
Oh what a sight your face will be
When you hear my memory of Glacier and me
