I Try


I try to be a mountain
I crumble into sand
I try to see the future
All I see- my failed plans
I try to heal so many hurts
Yet cannot stop one tear
Thus every day I am reminded
I'm so glad the Lord is near

Billy Collins: You Inspire

You Rub Off

As feeling flows down keys and strings
Round subtle down beats and over harmonies
Can words travel down stream without interruption
And where do the salmon run now?

I know Sunshine rolls down the hills of sky
Tumbles down the mountain sides
Into my skin. My eyes sing for more
I glow in reflection of the day well spent
