WINE-DARK LAKE

1

Sunset's crimson red 

on the dark surface of the lake,

Homer's wine-dark sea

here in the ice-carved lake.00

2

Swimming towards the sunset

its red ashes reflected

on the dark water

enfolding me.

3

Not Homer's wine-dark sea

crossed by fatal ships,

just last of the the crimson

sunset on the waters

as I swim towards the shore.
