You Mix It Up
Life is delightful, happy,
the days full of love and future dreams,
but thats when you decide to,
Mix it up.
Without any warning you interfere,
unsettle the heart, displace the joy
stir up the quiet sea within, causing waves
that batter and hurt.
Tumble about, slip further under,
unable to breathe, where is the surface?
Or where is the land to rescue ?
Where to rest?
Today a little respite, a stillness,
a long intake of breath,
and, for now,
some peace.
Love this simple poem.. so perfectly describes my feelings often times….
ReplyDeleteMuch love from your Camino sister❤️
Does my “Camino sister” have a name?
DeleteWhy do we mix it up this way? It’s a beautiful poem.
ReplyDeleteMay we resist mixing it up so much and enjoy the peace.
