I am a lake, my poem is an empty boat


This photo was taken in Finland, summer of 2004

"I am a lake, my poem is an empty boat,
and my life is the breeze that blows
through the whole scene

stirring everything it touches--
the surface of the water, the limp sail,
even the heavy, leafy trees along the shore."

--from "My Life" by Billy Collins
