Though I Walk, I Shall Not Fear |

Shifting, the invisible swirl ruffling a lock, squinting an eye in wait the calm. Hearing the singing sigh as branches, leaves caress the touch of nature’s breath. Alone, beyond the hills, the valley unfolds lazily as a stream courses the meander of life, as waters flow toward the rage of torrents waiting beyond the horizon’s edge. Beyond the present, the future lying in wait of the traveler, as steps taken upon the path of life fade into the distance of time yet seen. Though I fear the unknown, I shall steadily walk. For thou art with me. My hand, held firmly...as courage courses mightily the veins of man. |

Barry Good to read your words again my friend. There's lots of strength in faith isn't there? I really love these lines "as steps taken upon the path of life fade into the distance of time yet seen" Too true and such a good write! Eric |
