Crystal Lake

On a crystal lake 
Pristine and calm
Early in the morning 
A fisherman prays for a catch 
Birds swoop, looking for food 
The sun not fully risen 
A light breeze blows 
Scattering ads from newspapers 
Laying on porches 
Too early for cars 
On the country road 
Leading into town 
Soon, it will all change 
The town will awake 
Busy with activity 
The crystal lake 
Will come to life 
Calm and pristine no longer
