Notes About The Poem

Written on October 23, 2025

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Let’s Go Swimming


Laughing wind sings through the oaks and pines
Making me feel like it knows my heart’s thoughts
Amusing, breaths of joy flow as sunlight declines
Letting me see, even when I weep, You’re alive
Writing my story with the most tender guidelines
Murmuring through the leaves that fall in silence
Restoring my hope with Your peace who defines
Every prayer, all my praise, love who never betrays

Still, cool twilight feels like You’ve answered me
With words of grace, hope like a gentle embrace
With tears who can’t explain, I fall to my knee
Reaching out to the only One capable of healing
The One who writes my story with words who agree
Whatever comes in this life, I have another life
A life waiting in glory, where love is deeper than the sea
And I intend to swim in its wonderful for eternity
