The story of my enchanted lake..

The late August days of summer vacation were usually hot and quiet. A secret place I went to escape the heat and boredom was probably just a stagnant pond behind the cosmetic factory. 

But, to me, it was an enchanted lake... 

An abandoned railroad track led the way beyond mounds of gravel and through a tangle of trees. Tall weeds and thorny bushes formed a threshold to view the sparkling water. Silver marsh grass rose from the banks around gnarled fallen tree trunks. Waxen lilies on tubular stems arched over to see their reflection in the water. A colony of frogs chirped along with the buzzing of iridescent insect wings and the trills of field birds.
