Laura Leiser Poet Rhyme

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.
