Be Quiet As Water

Hold still and be quiet as water while you search for thoughts inside shine like the stars sparkle like the sun but in this world, be bonafide Life is clamorous and its message very often is loud and in your face hold still and be quiet as water, join the flows of it's liquid Grace Love quite often does not make a sound so live in the hour of its gift hold still and be quiet as water, enjoy the journey and the lift; Justice is a silent partner to an honest life join the noiseless force hold still and be as quiet as water, live diligently without remorse Courage can be found in altruistic words other times in silence hold still and be quiet like water, if the pain needs guidance? know that water can be fluid, yielding in a world of solid matter hold still and be quiet like water when in doubt, take the latter be as quiet as water.

"Hold still and be quiet as water, while you search for thoughts inside." I think this is a beautiful way to begin, it's also a wonderful way to end. (As far as the way we live while we're here on this earth). The photo you have chosen to go with your words is so soft and serene. Soothing in many ways. Your words uplift my heart. Congratulations Vienna, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. Mark 4:39 NIV Love your poem, much great wisdom and guidance for all to gain from, congratulations on POTD.
