OASIS
Like a spring of endless water
in the midst of the driest desert,
you are like water that flows from under
that braves the heat to quench my drought.
You are a stream that nurtures my dream
and rouses my great courage to sprout.
You make me brave against the storm.
Your mere presence heartens my heart.
You are a river that flows forever
amidst the desert of my soul.
You are a fountain that soars up high.
Your endless flow touches the sky.
When my journey's so long and winding
and paths I take are swirling and devious,
your heart gives me a place to rest;
A cozy home where I can refresh.
