I can see the sunrise,
Slowly creeping downward on the buildings
Across the dell,
Leaving the ruins down in the hollow in
Shadow.
Slowly brightening, just as my mind slowly
Clears from the night.
Each day, we move forward
In fits and starts, only falling
Backward when
There was some lesson we failed to learn
The first time ‘round.
As the light of day creeps
In to illuminate the crooks and crannies,
So allow the light of Hope to chase
Away the dregs of despair, all the
Terrors of the night.
Let it fill you
And warm you, so you can go
Out and share your vision
With the world. Brighten
It, bring your Hope with
You so all the world
Can share it.
The World around
You may be
In Ruins;
YOU'RE
NOT!
