Kavita Ezekiel Mendonca
The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he refreshes my soul.
Psalm 23
The New international Version
Still me and let the silent waters flow
Still me when I’m too much on the go
Still me when my heart beats fast
Still me when haunted by the past
Still me when I run about
Still me when my life screams out
Still me still me every day
Still me when I kneel and pray
Still me so I can feel Your peace
To fly in formation like the Canada Geese.

A deep and moving work
Thank you so much Louis and Sameer for your comments on my poem Quietude. Besides the Faith theme, I love writing poetry in rhyme. I do write a lot of free verse too.
True. The poem is a mouthpiece to millions who are progressing on the path of soul searching.
A lovely,lyrical poem/prayer that incorporates faith in the quest for ‘Quietude’.Your father would have enjoyed reading this piece.
