Lake’s Wardrobe
GiaB prompt #8 apparel
The lake dresses Reflecting new moods every day The lake dresses In sky blue, white in her tresses In frumpy brown after the rain On misty days in cotton-grey The lake dresses
The lake dresses Sporting the current’s stripes there-on The lake dresses Plain or formal as she blesses But her most stunning gown to don: Forest green, fringed with red and bronze The lake dresses
The lake dresses Showing just her exterior The lake dresses Secrets she never confesses Hide deep in her interior Just as people all around her The lake dresses
