Healing Waters

The silver chord of life it’s true,
though seldom seen by me or you,
connects our body to our soul
and joins our spirit to the whole.

A glimpse of it we all can see
when silver waters flow quite free
with happiness straight from the heart,
or love so strong with tears we part.

Again, in times of heartfelt strife, 
you see the chord that gives us life
as silver streams pour down our cheeks
as sadness from our soul now leaks.

These waters flow to heal our pain,
to ease the burdens of life’s game.
They clear the pathways for the soul,
a silver chord that joins the whole.
