"Calm Over Rocky Waters" *

 

"Calm Over Rocky Waters"

Rippling cool waters, making a sound,

Tumbling over a rock bed as it drops down.

Over the rocks, to become a waterfall,

Spraying waters that beckon and call.

A place to stand and watch the spray,

Let it chase...ill thoughts, far away.

Or to lie beneath..the loud roar,

Until sad thoughts, leave...the minds door.

A place to sit in sweet repose,

Watch the water or simply doze.

A peaceful place to plan and dream,

While watching the ducks..splash and preen.

A Heavenly place, to just get away,

Forget the problems... of the day.

Water's fallingsound, so nice to hear,

A place for hours to just disappear.

Such a calming...the falling sound,

Of rippling waters, tumbling down.

Ah, so very lovely my friend!! I can "hear" the calm, feel the peace of the scene, and be thankful for the quiet our Lord provides to ease our weary soul!

This is lovely, Kathie. Very calming. Put me in mind of Linville Falls in the mountains of North Carolina. A very calming place for me to go and think. Thank you for the lovely reminder.
