Swimming

Dear friends,

We are happy to share you a last poem written by Fr. Mike Bassano, a Solidarity member based in Malakal (South Sudan)

 

Swimming

 

Venturing into unknown

outcome uncertain

life’s challenges

boldly facing

 

At every stage

guided by faith

all suffering finding

healing in You

 

Approaching lovely day

with delightful wonder

Your presence ever near

when dark shadows loom

 

Celestial light

permeating creation

gently following

grace’s rhythm

 

Positively journeying

to whatever may be

hopeful hearts united

recreating our world

 

Calmly surrendered

control let go

freely accepting

nature’s flow

 

Peaceful river

cascading plentifully

such is my heart

swimming in Your love
