“WHEN I WOKE” by Bill Charles ~~~~ When I woke this morning, all I felt like doing was running away to somewhere, so I did, and ended up at my most favorite place… It’s a location where I find serenity and truth, with snow capped mountains which rise into the bluest of skies, from the calmest waters I have ever seen, or known… I found this place some time ago, when my heart was sad, and I always end up there when I no longer feel that I am worthy, or can’t go on… It’s a setting created by the Lord, and He takes me there to calm and cleanse my soul, of the trials and tribulations of my inner being when it feels, as if it can no longer face, the coming day … ~~~~ |

A place where peace flows into you knowing He touched your soul A place where the sky is so blue and you again feel whole A place that He has created a scene the heart can rest A place where cleansing's awaited and you again feel blessed *sigh* Bill.....you have no idea how you truly touched me with this poem. I have a place in the mountains where I go and sit beside a stream and just feel all the beauty around me......I cannot explain well but the sound of the water mixed with the majesty of the mountains fills me with a sense that isn't completely of myself...there is healing and serenity...*sigh* the only part I am missing is the ocean....someday I will move back to the west coast and write while surrounded by a scene such as you have created with these words. That is my dream. **big hugs** thank you, so very very much. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |
