Swimming to the Calm Waters

Grit and perseverance
Through the waters
Of upstream swimming
Against the tides of flow
Narrow by a whisker
To near devastation
Saved by discovery
And a life lesson
To fight the good fight
But call for backup
When it all seems too much
No shame in asking
For help that is at hand
No less of a person
Nor a triumph
When won by a team
Physical or ethereal
There is always support
And a deep understanding
To be gained
From the divine intention
In going with the flow
For your highest good
Is always the aim of the Universe
Looking to your best life
And the soul’s journey
In infinite forward motion
Though it may seem
To be winding around
It is always higher
To the clarity of the clouds
And the blue skies above
Drowned by the peace and calm
That come with acceptance
And finding the light side of things
