Sailboat Lake

By Bruce Clifford

Near Sailboat Lake in this new world
Cheers from afar and near
Bells chime from the rear of the room

The yard glistens bright colors
Bright sky and a rainy sky
In the mix of time
Sailboat Lake is near
Sailboat Lake and fear

Near Sailboard Lake in this changed world
Sudden changes have always been
There is no new normal
Change is constant
There is no new normal
Sailboat Lake is near
Sailboat Lake is here

The sky reflects the anger in the street
The wind masks the crowds and the heat
Sailboat Lake is near
Sailboat Lake is here
Sailboat Lake and fear
There is no new normal
Change is constant
There is no new normal
Sailboat Lake is near
Sailboat Lake is here

There is no lost and found
It’s time to be, stay around
Change is constant
It’s always been that way
There is no new normal
Sailboat lake to stay
