In times of trouble,
fear and doubt,
it pays to cast your LOVE about

to focus on the WE and THEE,
and not the tribulations of ME.

Put the needs of the children first,
or the elderly, disabled or lonely.

To the sick and the poor
if you'll open your heart's door
you'll find your heart sails
on a swifter purer breeze,
taking you to sheltered shores,
where PEACE awaits with open arms
to rescue you from drowning harms
and shelter you from the stormy seas.

For when you cast your life-line out
you reel yourself in,
keep the storms at bay,
and let the tides of PEACE rush in.

dedicated to Christopher Reeve..a real-life Superman
inspired by his book  "Still Me"
