Shallow Waters

Shallow Waters. There’s a place I sometimes go, where peace I know I’ll find. Hidden somewhere deep within shallow waters of my mind. Far beyond the raging seas where troubles all abound. It’s where the ripples softly flow, this secret place I found. Where worries cannot find me there, regrets cannot persist. There’s memories of Love I’ve known and joy I can’t resist. Where gratitude fills up my soul and lovers take long walks. I listen to the soothing sound of water kissing rocks. I’m watching as the sun goes down and quietly I pray. That God in all His Majesty give me strength for one more day. Edwin C Hofert
