Having seen many incredibly majestic waterfalls this past week, I have decided to post this beautiful poem by Anne Wilson Schaef. I hope that it moves you, the way that it touched me.
Water Spiritual
A waterfall’s
A lovely place
To sit awhile
And know God’s grace
Plunging home
To the sea
Oblivious to you
Unseeing of me
The water knows which way to go
Returning to the sea
It must be so
It’s not too complex
This water song
It just keeps moving
Right along
No care for this
For that, no thought
Life is so simple
We’d almost forgot
I sometimes wonder
What point did we
Forget to notice
Life could be free
To move like water
T’ward our home
Is an easy task
Not done alone
The Creator’s grace
Accompanies us
We’re not forgotten
This, we can trust
To worry is only
As we all know
A lack of faith
In what is so
To move like water
Powerful yet weak
Will bring us to
The peace we seek
Oh yes, it sure did!
I’m glad, Kit. I really like AWS’s writing style.
This tranquil poem is one which quites all unrest in heart & the banging, clanging in your head. Thank you for that.
Banging? Clanging? Why did I just get a image of those 2 keystone cop minitures in HR PufnStuf? Yikes. lmao
