From your banks I would admire your waters, the radiance of this stream...
From the ripples I heard your voice, invite me, it told me "come and swim.."
So I lay back, let you take me in, your current, your flowing song...
But as you caressed me, slowly carrying me through your course.
You transformed into a river, rapids and white caps..
This rush overwhelmed me, took me by surprise.
Pulled me under, I lost my breath, but I still felt right at home...
No desire to surface, within your flood I belong, I open my arms, bare my soul..
I roll over your falls.

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
