Shades of Hope

Shades of Hope




From time to time it seems that grey is all we see

The rays of radiant light we just can’t seem to reach

Perhaps it is the overflowing of tears that come down as we try to cope

Blocking the rays of light, blocking the shades of hope


We have to find the strength from within even if it’s not much

To reach over to the of light of Jesus and ask for his loving touch

His shoulder will always be there for our tears to fall

Bringing on the sunshine to show the shades of hope to us all


A rainbow of hope is not always painted up in the sky

It appears deep within our souls if we ask Jesus to be at our sides

It doesn’t take much to see a sign of his presence being there

For shades of hope he designed are placed everywhere


For the colors of the earth already display his window of hope

All in perfect spectrum that exists in heaven’s rainbow

Today might be hard for some of us to pull ourselves through

Though tomorrow we have to remember that the sun will still be shining for me and you


Shades of hope are painted by God’s hands

Reminding us that once again that he understands

The meaning of our tears and where they fall

Resting onto his shoulder where he will carry them all….

    Beautiful... that last stanza.... I really love that. I know He does understand us, the reason for our tears. Sometimes it's hard to remember that He's there and he cares, even about the "little" things. Thanks for this poem.

    This is beautiful... Life is nothing without hope, love, and God... If we don't have them, then we are searching for them together...
