Serenity of the Lake

"The most beautiful gift of nature is that it gives pleasure to look around and try to comprehend what we see"- Albert Einstein

With her water cold and clear,
She did reflect the sky above her,
Soo blue enough to tumble  your heart to dance and cheer,
And to raise your spirits forever.

Through the mist, the Sun shines;
And with her warmth did the lush green grass grow,
Along with the blossoms that thrive along the vines,
Amidst those mountain snow.

The symbol of love resided in her waters.
Every time purity and elegance was marked,
As she floats in grace,
And makes her crystal water beauty charmed.

She could spread her radiance wide and far,
With her in-depth wisdom,
Of separating milk from water which was spread afar,
The Royal Swan built her own kingdom.

The mountains gently cradle
Her calm waters from both the sides,
As if it is filled with pride,
Even during the darkest of nights.

The ever waning light of the Moon,
Makes the surroundings glimmer more and more,
For Venus was up for her rule,
And to let the other flowers cherish their vividness of colors.

Enchanted am I by nature's beauty in various form,
Through Sun and the rain and the thunder storms.
Wondrous beauty shall never seize,
For the Lake has its own way to please.

Reference:

I would love to share a part of mythology behind "Separating milk from water" -

haṁsaḥ śvētō bakaḥ śvētaḥ kō bhēdō bakahaṁsayōḥ ।

kṣīranīravivēkē tu haṁsō haṁsō bakō bakaḥ ॥

The above famous lines acts as a reference. These are the Vedic lines that states
"The swan is white, the crane is also white.Then what is the difference between the Swan and the Crane?
  During discriminating between water and milk,the swan is a swan while the crane is a crane !"
Swan is always associated with glory,purity,affection,love,majesty and divinity. Hence it is believed than Hamsa can separate good from bad.
