A Message of Hope

I awake contented as I hear the birds sing A message of hope seems to be what it brings The sky opens up providing rays of light and hope The future hangs before me like a carrot on a rope. Brooks stumble over stones on their journey toward the sea They remind me of the change of what is and what shall be The water rises up but soon it shall recede I don’t get what I want but have what I need. I see the flowers open up to accept rays from the sun Little rays of happiness so they all try to grab some Beauty surrounds as the trees provide some shade As I view all the beauty that nature has made. The grass is so green and the sky is so blue Erasing all the sorrow making everything brand new The birds take to the sky as they begin to soar The world is before me as I open up my door. I look in amazement at all that God has made A cool breeze blows by in the oak tree’s shade Animals scurry around they don’t seem to have a care My eyes take it in and my heart joins in the share. I know I’ve seen this many times before But it seems today I see so much more The world I see daily becomes inspiring to me As I see what is and imagine what can be.
