The Answers

I wrote this for my husband, Dael, when he was moving to the U.S from Canada in 2000, by himself.


Do not doubt the peaceful lure of the ocean,
for its flow is pertaining only to you.
Listen to the calming voice which howls through the trees,
for it speaks of the unknown answers.
Dance among the shadows of the night,
for they are not mere silhouettes,
they are simply the voice of the past.
Do not fear that there is certainty of the future,
simply hold it within your grasp,
for it is always yours to alter.
Hear the song of the bird in the morning light,
for it shall sing of hope and faith that is forever ours.
Maintain the love that lights your very soul.
Surrender to the knowing that is all around
you.
