While walking through one of my favourite places, Fr. Collins Park, I just had to snap at these ducks and swans I saw, that looked so peaceful as they swam through the water. While looking at the ripples in the water, it reminded me of a poem I had written, called Wave of Life.
WAVE OF LIFE
Look at a wave and what do you see
A little pull and push on the sea shore
Sometimes the wave is rocky
Sometimes the wave is calm
But it stays strong
Now look inside yourself
How do you feel?
Sometimes a little rocky
Sometimes a little calm
But as you look further
You will see
That your life is like a wave
Sometimes it pulls you and
Sometimes it pushes you
But not always rocky
If you can embrace your life
With the beauty that you see
It will become calm
Life will no longer be a struggle
For every wave that knocks against the shore
Gets stronger ever more
So keep an open mind and be positive
You will overcome the rocky wave
And learn to be calm again
