HOPE
hope lives in
colors of dawn subtle
as dark of night is slowly pushed away
colors now brilliant
radiance of sun spills over the horizon
painting the world
with broad strokes of His love
hope lives in
drop of grace
as dandelion
is lovingly picked by little fingers
hope lives in
raindrops dancing
little feet
little hands
umbrellas held
with joy
hope lives in
waves crashing
never ceasing
drawn by the light of the moon
created by the hand of God
hope lives in
sweet freshness of baby's skin
life so new
fragile softness of elderly parent's skin
life lived long
hope lives in
first leaf falling
a reminder that summer does end
hope lives in the tiny candle
flickering in the dark
hope lives in the streak of sunlight
piercing through angry clouds
hope lives in that streak of sunlight
as it collides with the falling raindrops
culminating in God's
ultimate signature
of hope...
the rainbow
hope lives in the gentle touch
of love on a shoulder stooped in despair
hope lives in
returning to the cross
kneeling
giving back to Jesus
my heart
my life
my will
giving once again
my fears
my sadness
my worries
my guilt
although He never wants
me to carry these burdens
He patiently waits for me to
lift hands high
giving all to Him
once again in
sweet sweet surrender
and hope springs new
as all of creation shouts
as all of creation whispers
His glory shimmers
His love radiates
His hope permeates
