Act Upon

In the background of trickling water, I can hear your voice speaking to me Go with the flow, in all the uncertainty and strive to be all you can be For there are times the water is still Like a mirror, barely a ripple of will And in those times of stillness on the surface, currents may still move in depths below From which we can still act upon, for if not the true outcome we may never know 8/7/21 *Entry for Brian Strand 4 to 14 Line poetry contest

Hello Heidi ... gazing across still water calms the mind, but also, as you wrote, there can be turbulence below - very nice Heidi - Lindsay
