ELLEN’S SONG OF LIFE

I am the tug and push of the waves. My emotions lapping with the tide. Never settling.

I am the tumble of stones on the shore. Over and over. Unsettled thoughts.

I am the turning of the seasons. New phases of life. Learning different ways to be.

I am the bouncing boat, far out to sea. Sailing to places unknown, unchartered. Keep a look out for land.

I am the lighthouse, a beam of hope in the darkness. There are sharp rocks unseen. But all is not lost.
