Tired and busy,
I took a moment to wander to the beach.
The sun was setting,
I took off my shoes
Lay them on the sand,
And stood a while to rest.

I saw the sky.
Today so blue, so awesome.
Yet I know,
That where I could not see
Were stars, too many to count
Full of beauty, majesty and light.

I saw the sea.
Today so calm, so still,
It took my breath away.
Yet I know,
That where I cannot see
It was full of life,
Colourful, vibrant, exciting.

I saw my life.
Today so full, so busy.
Yet I know,
That scratch the surface and I’ll see
Eternal life,
Full of God’s purpose and plan,
Full of grace and destiny.

And as I stood reflecting,
I heard Your voice.
It whispered my name.
I felt Your hand, enfolding mine,
I knew Your breath upon my face.
And I knew that You, the Helper, had come.

Rested,
Strengthened,
Comforted,
I picked up my shoes,
Turned,
And together
We went on our way.

I truly enjoyed your piece...Your point and flow were excellent...I am a true lover of poetry and appreciate the beauty of the painting on a page of paper that we as writers use as a canvas...This is the type of piece that I know our God smiles at and is pleased with His creation of us as human beings...Keep writing -- you have a lot to offer...Juanita Pittman-Brown
