Soul Search
I took a stroll the other night, the stars were out, the moon was bright, and I saw a beautiful sky. Sometimes when I am by myself I search my soul. What does it all mean?
One cannot catch the wind or imprison the shadows or define the essential makeup of the Earth. Tomorrow a hundred things I will find to say, when I face another day.
The sunshine and it's warmth is used, then lost to the past. Where did it go?
The days are scattered throughout the years, I watch the bees and butterflies on graceful wings. And the pleasant scent of the flowers perfume and I hear the lovely sound when the birds sing.
I walk alone in peace, how pleasant to remember the joys of yesteryear! There is a sweetness in the air that nothing can equal. I like to think, "This is the greater sweetness and understanding of the emotions we all have."
When I pause to listen, I can almost hear God say, "I made it all for you!", a miracle before my eyes. I lose myself in memories here, how soon the day has passed!
I love the peace of this dear place! And when the shadows around me creep, and there is stillness everywhere, I lay me down to sleep.
