Feet planted firmly Small island of silent thought Wind rushes water I first heard the rush of the water when Sophie's hand gripped mine. We stood there like deer in headlights, waiting on that tiny island thing. It's coming Roaring torrent We will drown I couldn't believe it was happening, that water could charge like a bull. Sophie let out a shreik of resigned terror I lowered my head and held her close. Wall'd around Thundering wave We will die As I closed my eyes the sound stopped my ears heard nothing but gentle breeze. I could feel Sophie relaxing a little, I let go of her and opened my eyes. Feet planted firmly Small island of silent thought Water remains still Turning around, I saw the river menacing but still, a wall before me. Sophie gasped as she saw the love our assailant had bestowed on us. Be still I will comfort you will live There was a faint roar as we heard the water behind our wall mounting. I closed my eyes again to hear all grow still to leave us once more alone. Open your heart within that you learn Any idiot can see that the result is true. |
