She looks up from her book
She welcomes the sight of the lake
She smiles…. Knowing she has arrived
She had always looked forward to the sight
Bidding farewell to it every morning
She takes her walk
Getting her usual pancake
She says thank you and smiled
She loves the peanut and sugar and the crunch
She walks….
She walks, while enjoying the munch
Yum…..
She walks….
Reflecting her day
The children’s antics amuses her,
She laughs in her heart, she smiles
Reflecting her life
She asks for God’s grace and trust
She spends lots of time thinking,
The walk is seldom empty,
But lots of thoughts, and conversations
Lots of ponderings, and doubts
Lots of petitioning, and remembering
The crossroad is in sight,
She strains to see what colour it was,
And she starts calculating her steps,
Maybe she should keep her pace; then it’ll be the right time to cross
Maybe she should quicken the steps; just in case she was too late
Maybe she should slow down; ‘coz it was gonnna stop anyway
Maybe she should just talk her walk;
Enjoy the sky
It doesn’t matter what colour it shows, she always crosses over it anyway.
She should just take her walk…..
She walks….
She enjoys the leaves above her
The shadow dances on the street.
She looks forward to the turn
Smiling she’d soon be there
She walks…..
The familiar surrounding comes into sight,
Her heart starts to sing,
Of songs that would praise her Lord,
Of songs that she was feeling,
Of songs that was from her heart
She walks…..
She looks up to the sky,
She marvels at its vastness
And she thought to herself….
When was the last time she marveled at the blue sky?
It is so wide,
It seems infinite with no end; so big, so high, so in awe
The sun caught her eyes, the clouds spread like water paint
She marvels at the beauty….
She takes in the surrounding; enjoys the moment of admiring HIS work.
A final turn…
Her walk is nearing,
A few more steps…
She breathes the sigh of relief
She croons ‘Hi honey! How are you!’
He jumps around, greeting her happily
She smiles, pat his head, sometimes a hug…..
She is home.
