Liked the wooden bridge. It always enhances the beauty of any lake. A wonderful presentation on life yet in my humble opinion I always see nature as a companion when I am alone. It gives me solace. Top Score and to my favorites.

A wonderful story in a beautiful poem. There are lot of images....crystalline images that transported me to the lake and its surroundings and see the beauty of nature. I always like any body of water. It is always magical and a melting pot for animals and human beings.

Yes, nature is so calm and lonely. But humans messed up everything and destroyed nature. Beautiful poem.

I was a bit emotional and took my pen beyond the subject matter of this poem. By the way, this is a beautiful poem. Full marks!

Dear David, we all feel sorry about the painful situations in Eukraine. Putin himself sheds tears alone at night about the brutal scene and prays God to forgive his sin but he is undone. Putin is a very talented man but I wonder why does he do this? Can million Davids change his mindset?

Bare London Plane trees does sound a little lonely but the cormorant company indeed a joy! Still the loneliness is there! Thanks for sharing it with us!

If I cannot be with the one I want to be with I'd rather be alone.
