There are streams of love inside us all, each destined for the heart
But dammed by life’s enduring stance, before their flow can start

Awaiting times salvation and the rain of joy’s advance
The blessing of a saviour true and just one lucky chance

The heart awaits a river that does flow with love that’s true
But stagnate live so many souls who know not what to do

We’re filled with life’s emotions; we feel what hurts to man
Blessed at times with joyous thoughts, then live as mortals can

But sometimes seeds aren’t blessed to grow, or rivers let to run
Sometimes things aren’t meant to be, when all is said and done

Are there lives we used to live for which we now repent?
Where love has not been granted or a little blessing sent

Do we live just on and on until it’s just too late?
Do we push love’s patience past it being there to wait?

A hundred million questions with all the answers weak
So many felt emotions that are asking just to speak

A life we’re living here today, a life that's good or bad
Trying to be happy everyday although you’re sad

Awaiting flow of river and love to fill the heart
May we all be happy with another chapters start

Hello Rick

There is always so much wisdom behind everything you write and this was a perfect example of that.  Your words always make me think.  I hope all is well in your life.

Take care........Sue

I'm anchored in you
