Surrender

wondering if it helps to figure out

why things happen and where it’s at 

if for a moment we can just accept

whatever unfolds and puts us to a test  

can be more than we might ever get


and still we choose to be

Alive in this Creation dream

observing and preserving some reflection 

of what we think we need 


and when life turns up the intensity 

can we find a way to stay in our integrity 

when it all stops making sense

can we smile and have no resistance 

and say ok 

whatever is just us will happen anyway


but somewhere there in our soul

we hope and pray to God to show

the purpose of our being alive 

and believe we can create a better life


So I turn it over to God today

and surrender to whatever happens 

and try to find the strength

and grace to face whatever comes my way
