Lovesick Lake

"Legend of Lovesick Lake"

and the birds were flying past

came a stranger, a handsome stranger

from a far off distant land

with a step that tread so lightly

came a by and steady hand

by Emily Margeurite Marshall

1925

Notes: Bright pink and heartbreakingly optimistic; cotton candy served with thick strawberry cheesecake and sour lemon squares on a hot rainy day
