Description

            Peaking through the clouds, the sun shines brightly. The many sounds, which relax me, fill my head. I hear the crickets humming their own songs, the birds chirping merrily, the dogs barking excitedly as they chase the quacking duck, which swims in a unique pattern around the lake, and I periodically hear the croaking of the bullfrogs. With the sweet aroma of their pine filling the air, the trees stand tall in beauty reflecting off the water. Faintly I can see a doe grazing in the holler. In bright colors, the wildflowers align the bank in an interesting pattern. Tasting the sweet bitterness of the bushel of honeysuckles, my mouth begins to water. Lightly blowing, the brisk wind sends a slight chill over my body creating the feeling that the temperature has just dropped ten degrees.
             In the distance, the sunlight begins to fade. With the light purple clouds stretching across the sky as if they were trying to reach something, creates a beautiful sight. Slowly as all the sounds start to fade out, I drift into a light sleep in the cozy hammock with my feet dangling over the lake, as I look at the most pleasant and beautiful part of creation. I"m woken with a slight scare but it was only to the triumph of my little nephew, who was overjoyed by the thought of catching his first catfish, disappointingly turning out to be a patch of green moss. I"m so thankful to have something so great and beautiful in my own backyard.
