  • FROM THE VALLEY BELOW

    Hi up there in the surface

    This is the valley below

    How did you reach the surface?

    Determination would have to be obvious

    It took everything you had in endurance

    Your own inspiration was the influence

    A desire you knew you had to fulfill

    It took a strong will

    Perhaps even a sleeping pill

    For courage you see

    Valleys sometimes people never get out

    Figure that one as you are moving about

    Purpose must sit in

    That is surfacing begins

    No cultivate

    Reality in relate

    Valleys are circumstances being hard knock challengers

    Valleys made you ready

    Understanding that held steady

    No time to fail

    Just a smooth surface sail

    Valleys are what start the trail

    One becomes prepared with a strategy

    Valleys out and surfaces in
