Peddling Solitude

Drift upon still green waters
Reflect on autumn rustling
Free yourself from turmoil
From honking and bustling

Float quietly with mallards
Defining nature’s wonders
Leisurely peddling solitude
Among a world of plunders

Collect yourself in stillness
The circling of God’s being
To touch the essence of life
Believe in all you’re seeing

A single rock skipping by
Brushing against the lake
A foundation for building
From all of life’s mistakes

Know that God is in you
To serve your life through
Capture peace in moments
This day you are renewed
