Let Go

Let go!
Live to the beat 
of your inner rhythm.   
Move with the flow 
where the journey of life
brings you;
sometimes to a rocky road
when the journey seems 
filled with despair,
and tears fall like raindrops,
sometimes to a sweet respite
when your path seems straight and clear
and you prosper in all you do.
Welcome whichever comes!
Accept as part of the journey and just be.
Observe the trees as they do,
see how they flourish.
They sway when the wind blows
and steadies when it’s calm and silent,
doesn’t matter what comes,
the way to be, 
is to let go and let God.
