Who Is She

No. She’s not some strange lady that accidentally washed upon a sandy shore. Yes. She was sent by God to lift up a standard that too few have ever known. A BRAVE FIGHTING SOLDIER and is among the tried, the true, and faithful few. She's a WALL OF DEFENSE, protecting and shielding from all enemies. She’s a MOUNTAIN like Whitney or Everest, rising strong and tall above the carefree landscape, as she watches and warns of dangers to all who will listen. She’s an OCEAN, whose waves keep on coming to shore, to seed the sand; And recede, only to return again and again. She’s a FAITHFUL RIVER, flowing with force and favor, Bringing life and energy to everyone. She’s a WELL BUILT DAM, who refuses to be broken or breached; As she releases faith, hope, and love to those downstream. She’s a MIGHTY WARRIOR, pulling down strongholds She’s a LANDMARK, displaying the value of things unchangeable Yes. My friend is a GENTLE STREAM, flowing quietly With waters so divinely pure and crystal clear. 09072013 Contest 249, Brian Strain (A tribute to a very special person: my terminally ill friend))
