Walking

by Joanie Roberts

I begin a simple day
I sit down by the lake
its waters bath my soul
joining the morning sun
meant just for me 

I am old
I walk this sacred ground
finding a labyrinth beneath my feet
a journey of hope
and new beginnings

I am lonely
I wait for you 
upon this path
walking the clouds one by one
through my blue-sky day

I know this place
I know this love
and in return trust
I will find my way
all for this one simple day ~
