Poets Inspiration

I can see why
The poets where inspired
One can sit or lie
And let imagination be fired.
The powerful mountains that rise
Above a silvery, shinnering lake
Their grandeur and size
Proving all mans work just to be fake.

4th June 1991 - Ambleside, England

This was written whilst spending a summer vacation in the Lake District area of England with two of my College friends, Leon and Steph. The Lake District is home to the great English poet William Wordsworth as well as inspiring many others amongst them John Keats and Robbie Burns.
