Restoration

 Stillness 

Is a practice 

I’m still learning 

Mind

And Body

Aligned 

With my

Creator

Praise

 Praising 

My way 

Into a great

Day

Nature’s aroma

 Pink nails

Red toes 

Picking yellow flowers

While honing in

On nearby 

Baby’s breath

And my feet

Get lost

In nature’s aroma

The simple pleasure

Is often

The best one

Merit

 Lord

This morning 

I’m speechless 

In awe

That a broken 

Sin-filled soul

Is given

Hope 

Again and again

In each moment 

Despite the fact

That I don’t 

Merit it

At all

Ride

 Let the mind

Wander

With the waves

Tasting the saltiness

Enjoying the ride 

Beautiful

 Love me

Every day 

In every way

For the heart

Beats 

Feels

Repeats

Water

 The boat’s wake

Looking back 

Clean lines

What once was

Now distant memories 

Etched indelibly 

Forevermore
