Memory ... freedom


Philippians 4:7 

And the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

 

Memory

 

Quietly slowly floating down the river called: “Memory”

Nothing seems to disturb the selected heartbeat of rhyme

Driven somewhere by time ... interwoven in selected fantasy

Where Life can be so peaceful ... and movements are a mime

 

Little here to upset the peace of the reliving of the past

All appears much better since I am more the designer

Seldom second best now ... since I shape this house of glass

that I have called into action in the landscape of the finer

 

My little raft a dreamboat as peaceful music fills the air

Dancing on the waterfront the moments of happiness I’ve lived

Here I am alone ... within the illumination of my sphere

Observing a past life where all negatives I’ve skipped
