Walking walking walking
Along life’s pathway
Sailing sailing
Treading water
Holding on
Where am I going
Somewhere
Somewhere I want to be
Somewhere beautiful
Where I come and go freely
I love this place
I am welcome here
Safe and free
Free to live
Free to love
To be in love
Free to know
And be known
By the One I love
Abiding with Him
Watching Him rule and rein
He is beautiful
Awesomely mighty and stronger than
The Evil One who hates me
The Evil One hates me but he cannot touch me
Because The Mighty Warrior guards me
Wherever I go
Along life’s pathway
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil because The Shepherd is with me

Thank you for visiting and for your encouraging comment. You are right about the “Christian feel”. The Mighty Warrior and The Good Shepherd both refer to Jesus. I looked at your blog and left you a comment. 🙂

This is a wonderful poem! It reminds me of something I wrote back in college. I should probably go see if I can find that..
This weekend, I am hosting my second annual poetry weekend on my blog. Basically, it’s three days where I post my own poetry, but this time, I’m offering everyone the chance to participate and share poems they have written. Let me know if you this is something you want to do. You can check out my blog for more details.

very good. Both the message and the poem. Sometimes we forget who is guarding us…when we’re sleep….when we’re awake and when we’re dreaming. Awesome.
