Kalamalka - An Optical Phenomenon

Kalamalka Lake is a rare combination of Glacier Fed waters in a semi-arid climate. Calcium Carbonate (Limestone) crystalizes in the summer as the temperature rises and the phytoplankton multiply. The crystalization creates "marl" these crystals refract/diffracts the light resulting in a seasonal colour change.

The Kal Car

O Lake of Many Colors,

Thou has found out how the pearl,

Though living in seclusion

Beneath the ocean swirl

From its opalescent matrix

Can gather all the hues

That make it queen of jewels

Above all that one could choose

Thou hast found out how the diamond

Though bedded deep in earth,

For aeons without number,

Can reveal its polished worth

When taken to the sunlight

Or brought to its baptism 

Of fire, by brightly flashing

All the colors of the prism

In every mood of nature,

So long as there is light

Thy colored surface changes,

To fresh beauties in our sight.

More vivid in the sunshine,

More subfusc* in the rain.

Thy scheme of color always

Is there – it doth remain.

When misty clouds descending,

Or smoke of forest fire

Obscure the sky, thy beauty

Only seems to mount the higher,

As the shadows grow more pallid,

As the mystery grows more deep;

As the calm comes o’er thy features

Half hidden, as in sleep.

When storm clouds gather darkly,

Mid the thunder, or the hail

Beats fiercely o’er thy bosom;

When the spindrift lifts the veil

From thy glorious naked beauty,

Thy colors still are there,

Though frowning and more murky,

And perhaps not quite so fair.

In thy workshop grimly working

With a cunning all thine own

On silica, aluminium

And chromium, thou hast shown

To every rapt beholder

How refracted may be seen

From thy valley – beds the emerald’s

incomparable green.

A.V. Despard  From "Songs Of Kalamalka" 1944
