![]() Noodle LakeA Poem by Earl Schumacker![]() An accidental lunch![]() Noodle Lake
The calm lake woke up suddenly On an all consuming day Received its first visitor from above A truck, a tractor trailer fell from the sky Crashed!...An accident perhaps A high ridge to sharp A curve too narrow It split open like an egg on impact Tons of noodles scurried out Boiled up soft in high noon heat Lunch fell over Summer over time A waterfall shaped like a ladle Cascading noodles watered down Well done for sure and swirled But what about the driver? The sun said, I'll take two scoops Save the rest for later We'll see what the lake stirs up © 2018 Earl Schumacker |
