Sylvia Coulstock Poet Rhyme

Be Guided By Love

Whenever the road is long and hard
And you wish that your burdens were light,
Remember to have FAITH there by your side.
With courage it will act as your might.

Whenever the sun seems lost from view 
And ahead a long,long night,
Remember the HOPE lying deep in your heart.
It will help to reveal the light.

Whenever the darkness embodies your fears
That you tremble at what lays in sight,
Remember the LOVE that holds you dear,
That will guard till the morning bright.....

We are all travellers along life's road
At times it seems only darkness in sight.
So as you journey go with FAITH and HOPE.
And let LOVE lead with its'kindly light.

Honesty Oimbo November 4, 2010 at 7:37 AM it is a good rhyme but why is HOPE not rhyming with road? i am also very sorry that my name has made you realize that what is in England is not the norm elsewhere
