Letting Go

Letting Go Today, my heart, you sail away. May your seas be calm and constant. Plot your life’s course wisely. Let your ports be safe havens. And then, when your heart is in need, Hold your course homeward. In known harbors will you find comfort. Loving faces will meet you. I’ll stand awaiting the tide.
