Seeking Serenity

I walk alone beside a highland stream watching shadows lengthen and grow in a tranquil valley where tree boughs lean while grazing cattle quietly glean about the lonely canyons as I go. In silence I view the fading sun its rays alight the mountain peaks a golden crown that begs me to come unshackle my burdens and hear the One whisper His love, to my spirit He speaks.
