Sweet abandon...

Peaks and valleys... highs and lows
The verdant green grass hugs the crest of the hillside
Painting a landscape for awestruck gazes
A gift solely for my eyes... the whisper of a Creator

Sweet abandon pursues my tired mind...
Letting go dissolves a worthless weight
My stride slows to a gentle, melodic pace
Surrendering my breathe to a cool, brisk wind...

A strong but merciful hand hovers behind me...
Softly leading me down a sandy pebble graced bank
The clear water laps quietly at my bare feet...
The coolness of each step quenches the fire

I know You are with me... always... forever
The seconds playfully skip into a silent void
The leaves rustle and emit a soothing static
Electricity arises, pulsates... my heart stays calm

My stride is light with rising trust and hope...
My steps are hushed with a welcome mystery
The path trails off into a wooded forest
Dispensing a resplendent alchemistic glow

Blindfold me with wonder and obedience
Make each new step feel as though it were a first...
The joy of exploration with no restriction
Relieve my need to know stepping into this sandbox

Build castles that emerge from nothingness
Call into play dreams of magical moments
Release the sweltering knowledge of past
Open my heart to a gravitating new...

Sweet surrender... sweet abandon... Abba, I am Yours.
