Out on the open water
the lake already glitters
in its myriads of greens and blues
the shadows are slowly receding,
the light promising a glorious late summer day
to experience the light underwater,
a few onlookers waiting for them onshore

The sailboat on the beautiful blue lake is as seductive as your photos of cakes, Merisi.
