Wetland Walkway

Wetland Walkway

water rises
water falls
edge of lake
adventure calls

so distracted
by the view
miss the danger
where feet
follow through

rocks are slimy
roots they grip
ankles slide
feet get tripped

danger lurks
while beauty brays
like a siren
look this way

wooden highway
hovers wide
gaze at the lake
safely stride

get distracted
by the view
the path is safe
under you
