Walking along in a
garden of flowers
vibrant in the
colors of a rainbow
breathing in the
Sun’s healing mist of
goodness and love
shall even lift a
weary body to rejoice!

Hope In Hardship
In Response To:
FOWC With Fandango – Permit
RDP Saturday – Hope
Crimson’s Creative Challenge #61 – Every Wednesday I post a photo. You respond with something CREATIVE.
Can one permit hope
for the worn and weathered
years of life taking its toll
when weariness is the lyrics
that the outer shell sings
off key due to pain and fatigue
the high pitch notes that scream
louder than the inner happiness…
Can one permit hope
with a mustard seed of faith
in the Grace where our hope is found
that reminds us that this is but
a temporary suffering
for in the dawn of a new morn
this passes and the outer shell
has a renewed strength
the gift of a heightened faith
in a Love that bears all things.

a body worn out
a soul exhausted beyond
a sabbatical
desperately required
eyes closed the journey begins
rest to become whole again

which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
whatever they do prospers.
