Turmoil
Turmoil heaves and bubbles
Unending flow of troubles
Plains of woe lay flat and relentless
Tree line shadows, my thoughts new temptress
Live in the moment, to navigate through
Don't shrink from the task you know to be true
Forest's rim so calm and inviting
Nearly there now, anxiety subsiding
Life's not a test but our journey's true purpose
To travel the path and go where the hurt is
Only thru suffering will we learn true compassion
To lift veils of sorrow, don't cease loving action
Accept the joy as well as the grief
To give of oneself, there flows all relief
