Lady Of The Lake Poem by Dave Alan Walker
Lady Of The Lake
Today I talked
to the old lady
who lives across the way
she said she died
a hundred years ago today
She told me
of the time she saw me
fishing in the lake
I had to laugh
I said
if You've been dead
for a hundred years
it couldn't have been me
you saw fishing in the lake
I'm not even fifty yet
She said
have you ever seen me
walk out of this garden
or talk to anybody else
I said
you've got me there
but like I said
if you died a hundred
years ago today
it couldn't have been me
you saw fishing in the lake
She said
a hundred years ago today
you drowned trying to save me
now it's time to except
that you are dead
Who knows, we may all be dead without realizing it! ! Great write Dave, love it.

Dying is like coming to the end of a long novel-you only regret it if the ride was enjoyable and left you wanting more. such a great story you have wrote sir....the hardness we feel inside to let go of things which ended long time ago cause deep down we never wanted it to go......another brilliant write from a brilliant man splendid... thank you for sharing this wonderful piece sir love, payal
