Love and Hope
And charity
Another day, I hope and pray.
New life and tomorrows abound.
The morning dew and silvery dawn
Slip past with nere a sound.
A new birth of another day
And a good reason for optimism.
Fresh life bids a new beginning
A golden prism of new wisdom.
As I reach out, I touch the hands.
Of those that came before me
The joy, tears, and everlasting love
Each step set me free.
To share the great abundance.
The God-given mysteries of life
The hardships, pitfalls of love, and loss
Joys and freedom from strife.
Love and hope and charity
Spring eternal from the flow
Of places deep within my soul
Somewhere I need to know
Love abounds in secret places.
When sought, it will be found.
The common ground and sharing
Then optimism will abound.
I’ll always be beside you,
When near or far away
The love we share is always
Beyond words that I can say.
So, on this day, please think of me.
And new days and golden sunrises.
Filled with optimism and with love
And more shining surprises.
