The Old Man of the Lake

Crater Lake is clean, deep and blue.
I've called it home since don't know when.
Thirty foot tall tree stump, I do
Be bobbing waters all again.
Boaters keep an eye out for me.
Tourists do want to check me out.
Guess I am a celebrity.
I am kind of unique, no doubt.
Prob'ly a hemlock I am told.
Most of me underwater stays,
Kept preserved by the icy cold.
Above, four feet bleached white I raise.

Floating with currents give and take,
I'm called The Old Man of the Lake.
