When warm summer breeze brushes by,
bees, butterflies happily fly,
remember God is walking beside.
Mighty mountains stand tall,
to atrocities never they fall,
remember God is walking beside.
Sometimes darkness clutters mind,
but , still a speck of hope we find,
remember God is walking beside.
To enlightenment when we wake,
And when last breath we take,
remember God is walking beside.

A beautiful mantra of life... "remember God is walking beside."
How lucky are those to have that warm comfort of belief. That speck of hope is so important. Beautiful post.
This is a beautiful meditation and how smoothly you wrote it in a form familiar to you. Thank you for this.

Hello greetings and good wishes.
Very inspiring poem well written with a positive message of encouragement and hope.
Very often in times of difficulty, troubles and disappointments we get discouraged and depressed without realising that God is walking beside us and guiding our steps in the right direction. God always shows us light at the end of the long dark tunnel. We always find a solution one way or the other for every problem. This clearly shows that God always walks beside us.
Best wishes
This is beautiful and uplifting...love the meditative note here drawing us in.....
A wonderful poem.
Yes, the repetition works like a meditation for me too. Good work!
No matter if we believe in god - i truly sense that we are not alone...that is conveyed brilliantly here..
This poem is very comforting. I love the idea that God is walking beside us on our journeys.
Enjoyed the style of writing, vandana!!Very peaceful and optimistic! :)
