calm, blue, infinite, spreading in every direction, <br />soothing, healing, loving, sheer perfection, <br />thats what you are my Lord, <br />thats my perception of you, <br /> <br />I feel you in every breath I take, <br />I experience you in every daily miracle you make, <br />you are there with me from morning to night, <br />you are there to assuage my every hurt, my every slight, <br />I have to drown my ego and bathe in your healing light, <br /> <br />that is my perception of you dearest God, <br />a deep abiding faith, that is never shaken, <br />from the time I sleep to the time I waken, <br />help me to be good and kind and true, <br />to every human I meet, and the ones who matter, the few, <br /> <br />help me steer towards the right, and away from the wrong, <br />help me have patience, when things don t move along, <br />help me do my duty, keep my peace and submerge my pride, <br />be my guiding light, my saviour, and my guide, <br />and if I achieve even a bit, of what I aspire, <br />it will be, because you wish it and what I require, <br /> <br />let me learn from those who are old and so wise, <br />and when I hurt deeply God grant me reprise, <br />for you are so warm, and healing and filled with love, <br />what I cant get from your world below, I get from you above, <br /> <br />no word, no song, no music, is as sweet <br />as the feeling when I surrender myself at your feet, <br />because if one thing is sure, <br /> its that you are there for me, <br />vast, unending, soothing and healing..... <br />...like the deep deep blue sea.<br /><br />Arti Chopra<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/like-the-deep-deep-blue-sea/
