Walk On Water
WALK ON WATER
by Roy
Walk on water, as if on land,
You will not sink, you will be fine,
E’en the storm may blow a wind so strong,
And the sea my raise a tide so high,
So long as your heart is calm.
Walk on water and you will see
How great a person you can be
Through the tides of trials that blocked your path
And the winds of troubles that push you back
A great hero from you will shine
If clouds of uncertaintees darkenned your path,
And rains of frustrations fall on your heart,
Hold on for a while, but never give up.
Then keep on going, never look back,
Just keep that faith in your heart.
Walk on water, despite the storm,
Keep your heart pure, your will be strong
Be great the threat that faces you
Your great faith will help you come through
’til you reach the glorious shore.

Ah! Would love to do that! Actually I’ve been doing that here in out place. he he he.
Seriously, there are things we’d do and things we’d rather let nature take it’s course. Like following a dream even if it takes us to the ends of the Earth we’ll go there, but if we are just not meant to have ‘em, well, that’s another thing and we’d have to find a way to reach our goals somehow.

I am amazed seeing the dates in your poems (yeah, not only this one!). It’s so amazing to think you have preserved all of them and I can imagine during those dates I was just practicing to walk better or run better…. or cold even be still in diapers!
By then, I could not understand the meaning of this poem if internet does not exists but it’s so good that you preserved them and now, I read them and I understand… Strange feeling!
