From the Depths

The soul can descend to unimaginable depths Sorrow can tear at your heart Death, illnesses and the sorrows of friend and family Can wreck havoc with your psyche Let the powers that be do their thing it is hard enough to keep oneself happy without watching the bitter politics of this age Peace - like a running river This is what one needs So meditate and perhaps pray You will find your truths that way

This is all very true; sometimes I just turn off the news for several days until I get out of the funk into which, it pulls me. "Peace - like a running river This is what one needs"; especially true. Even if you have to get away from the rat race for a few days; you have to have that peace. Well penned, my friend.
