As I sat on the bank of a black pond,
it was quiet and the sun was dipping
below the clouds and hiding behind the trees,
I stared with projection into the darkness of the water,
and began to see some of my past
I had feelings of sorrow,
and joy all mixed up
While my mind tried to make sense of it all,
I still felt there was no way out
What’s done was done I thought,
but maybe I can change
I felt the urge to be a good leader,
for my children and others,
Something happened that’s hard for most to do,
I changed my thoughts and listened to God
The crickets and caddies began their endless sound,
darkening sky all around
I felt a peace come over me,
it was Lord He set me free
