 Rainbows in Water

Life's Book


Traveling the green meadows
safe within the breath of day
Tasting the cool water of familiarity
that friends and family bring into play.

Climbing the mountain of your dreams
over chasms you prevail
Risking the turbulence of swift rivers
for your destiny to unveil.

Dark clouds on every horizon
bringing strength when you survive
The trials of life will hinder you
before you can claim your prize.

Small moments within your life
where hands drag you back to shore
A gentle word of hope
that can access any door.

We are never really an island
in the sea of years we sail
Only a sailor upon the stormy sea
looking for land so we won't fail.

A life lived in happiness
with dreams and those you love
Bringing all the things we searched for
in the breath of Heaven from above.

Happiness is what we seek in life
doing things that punctuate time
The effort is the real success
for there is no success without trying.

So gather upon the steps of challenge
one step to gain knowledge for all
And a kiss upon the brow of life
will envision the here and now.
