A poem encouraging one to find hope beyond the pain...

Times of darkness
oft do bring forth fear
threats of silence
to ears that long to hear
til lightening strikes
and thunder roars
as clear blue skies
parade no more

Drops of rain
oft chill the bone
stunning the depths
of the warmest soul
when fear and doubt
bring forth no hope for the morrow
leaving in its wake
pools of sorrow

But that is when
depression possesses the soul
stealing faith
crippling hope
blinding eyes
meant to see
beyond the scope
of reality

But when joy returns
to a once wounded soul
renewing faith
restoring hope
the power of darkness
loses its strength
and the darkest storm
can still bring rest

for in God's presence
the light never fades
darkness may come
but it cannot prevail
Strong winds may blow
circumstances may show no change
but beauty can be found
even when it rains


So dance with me in rains from heaven
let us swim in heaven's mist
Let us spread our wings, and dance and sing
and share in heaven's kiss
