Lake Hillier

Pink and purple Lake Hillier
It's as smooth as it reflects.
Washed up on the beach
It crushes white before running back out.
Day in and day out
They are crashing
A peaceful calling is soothing.
'Wake up,' says the wake as it crashes
I comb my hair
As I sit here,
Observing the lake
In and out, in and out, in and out
I start to stray.
The rush of fresh air
And to think it'll all be gone in a flash
There are no waves to pound the shore.
There is no breeze to sway.
