Shoulders slumped, feet…sluggish
mind..tense
Fatigue and fear stalked me
up and down the paths I trod.
**
I looked up on impulse,
And saw it up there
An eye in the sky.
Friendly, bright and clear.
It seemed to say to me
Worry not my dear
I know the cares you have
A host of fears
The challenges seem many,
The solutions , far and few
But from where I sit, I see
The things you cannot see
The wheels of time, they turn in perpetuity,
Circumstances change constantly.
What is meant to be, will be.
The eye in the sky, it smiled at me
Have faith it said
Don’t fight the circle of life
Go with the flow and live!
Breathe, laugh and sing
I am watching and I can see
Life unfolding for you as it should be.
I looked around and realised
I had new companions by my side.
Fear and fatigue had slipped away.
Faith and courage showed me the way.
I looked up again and smiled
At the eye in the sky.
