Promises In Spring

S So swiftly as sunlight pierces a cloudy day, lies the P Promise that day from night is born R Resting gently, the golden ray on startled cheek I Is like a feather from a singing lark N No lovely thing from Him is ever lost G Giving faith in tomorrow's renewal, with reverant intent F For beauty hidden from our sight A A little while, returns ....and then.... I It lifts with wings and flutters on T The humble prayer of Easter is not in vain H His proof of life everlasting, arrives in every spring

a great poem you wrote an nice acrostic. it is a wonder what we can do with letters. thank you for reading my good bye murphy and for your comment. I had murphy for 12 years and 8 months and it will take me a while to get over the real bad hurt. But i have my other dog brandy. I wrote around 30 poems aboout murphy and brandy if you care to read them.

A very warm and cozy bowl of sunshine. Thank for your kind comment on my musical poem. That is how I feel when I listen to that piece. One of my favorite ways to listen to it is by watching this time-lapse of picturesque scenes of Edinburgh, Scotland with Philip's Concerto in the background. It brings goose bumps every time I watch it. You can find a clip of it on Youtube. Thanks for reading.
