A Leaf In the Wind

Like a leaf in the wind Floating through this realm of time Whither I go, this knowledge eludes And 'though I know who bloweth the wind At times my troubled heart does quake Over rugged mountains, through raging storms Tossed and battered against lofty walls Too high to scale or infiltrate When strength is wane and hope is dim Questions abound as to why here and now? All left unanswered, without a clue So best to withdraw and heart be stilled Live reliant upon His will divine With prayer a constant upon my lips In solitude and peace, my spirit blends Carried here like a leaf in the wind ~*~ ©2010 Audrey Carey
