Deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
Psalm 56:13

Water testing
In a muddy spring
Is a cool treat
Soothing and resting
For tender bare feet,
But not good news
At all
If you walk
On a sharp rock
And almost fall
Back into your shoes!
Poetry by me AJP

I am not sure what possessed me to try this but it was fun until I stepped on some rocks!:) I do remember when very young, I went barefoot a lot at the home place until I walked on broken glass...on my way to go wading in the creek. Maybe I was trying to recapture my youth here:)

    Yes, the water was rather icy Donald...but what we won't do for JPG:). Maybe I not only stepped on rocks but they also entered my head:) It was a fun and impromptu SP, anyway ...not planned out. Thanks to all for your kind words!
