๐ Happy Lake Superior Day! ๐
I tenderly mold the earth
Through dewy fog, mist, and seas
I nurture all life around me
My waves oscillate like cradles
Swaying and rolling the lake
As I rock mariners to sleep
I impact the climate, landscapes, and people surrounding my clear waters and beyond
With sublime horizons and a vast surface
I grant them a sanctuary of safety
I have been known by many names including, Gichigami, Lac Tracy, Lake Superior, and Big Lake. I have tended these lands and those who come to enjoy them throughout my ages.
I wish you a happy Lake Superior Day! The grandeur of my three quadrillion gallons of water has much to offer.
How will you marvel my majestic waters today? ๐
