A Light In the Window



Hope is a light by the window, it glows 
a lit torch of doting, it never dies 
Biding its time on the wings of love's throws 
its a matchstick of hope when one cries 

Hope is a lantern that hangs way up high 
a cresset lamp at the edge of night 
Rising and soaring like an eagle in the sky 
it is always present and never out of sight 

Hope is a feather that floats in thin air 
an eider down, for the crest fallen heart 
It aims to restore with gentleness and care
it cherishes and delivers, a fresh new start.
