Looking out at the sea at night,

the stars, moon and clouds reflect off the water below.

A perfect portrait of heaven above.

A light breeze walks around me,

swirling, dancing in the moonlight.

Two pictures above and below.

This is the moment when the world shows us our soul.

Peace, quiet in all its beauty.

Taking my moment, holding it in time.

Taking in the image that will forever stay

in my mind’s eye.

We run around with life in motion,

never taking time to see things as they should be.

No war or hate.

An understanding of peace that we all share

is in the reflection out over the sea.

Stand with me on the sands of life.

Take this moment; make it your own.

This view of the world

is what keeps our souls from growing old.
