Those Falls

Douglas J. Newsom

Ah lord, creation, the higher part of me

Have I said thank you lately?

Days so hard, and yet you make them easy

I have more to give now

I see

I feel deeply

I am more broadened

I know balance

I show peace

And those falls, they really don't exist for me at all!
