http://www.geocities.com/malward1_2000/ThePoolofTranquility.html THE TRANQUIL POOL When worries press upon me And life's burdens get me down, I have a special place to go Each morning after dawn. It is a place so tranquil That my burdens sail away. I sit beneath the pine trees Deeply rooted in the clay. This is my safe harbor - A place where I can go And gaze down on the pool Where I keep watch for the doe. She steps out of the forest, Raises head and sniffs the air. Tranquility envelops me As I watch her drinking there. And so my friend, I'd like to share This special place with you, So you might find both peace and love Within my tranquil pool. ~MARY ALWARD~ Copyright © 2000
