TRANQUILLITY. By Rod Morris

Have you ever sat upon the sand and listened to the sea? Perhaps you've wondered to yourself: how did this come to be?

You’ve seen the sun kiss low down clouds; they blush impulsively? Then on it climbs to spread its light for the all world to see.

The waterfalls the rivers, the creeks sing endlessly. Just stop take time to listen, its perfection musically.

Then when the day is over and the sun sets magically. Once more perhaps you wonder how all this came to be.

The sighing wind the singing bird, the greenness of a tree. Why do these simple pleasures lead to such tranquillity?

A FRIEND IN NEED by Rod Morris

As you journey through this life, you meet people without end. Just think from deep within yourself, how many you call friend. Some may slap you on the back, they will even call you mate. But when the going toughens up, their mateship's not so great.

Others are fair-weather friends; they cling on for the ride. Then when you find you need them most, they are never by your side. True friends are scarce, so hard to find, like water in the sand. And those you make throughout this life may be counted on one hand.

You need not write them letters, they do not expect a gift. For when you walk in unannounced, just like yours: their spirits lift. So make sure they know their value, and why you think of them as fiend. Then no matter what may come to pass, your friendship will not rend.

BE HAPPY by Rod Morris

There are times in your life, when the road seems so long. When you think to yourself, just what else can go wrong? You may feel in your heart, that it's so hard to win. That what once made you laugh, cannot now make you grin.

Despair's in the mind, like the tunnel of night. But after the dark, you are flooded with light. Just turn back your mind, to the good times you've had. To the friends you have made, and of why you felt glad.

To those in your life, whom you shower with love. Like the warmth on your back, from the sun up above. Now if you do this, you will say without doubt. Just what in the world, was I worried about?
