Either Sweet Or Sour

L-ove, faith and trust 
E-nhances our firmness; 
O-ur vigor is intensified in spite of scorn, insult and dis. 

A-t times they talk civilly, 
B-ut rude for days and hours; 
I-n eighth October morn 
N-ew strength is truly 
O-urs. 

R-emaining strong and solid, 
E-ven if we hear wayward patter; 
Y-es, they can say anything, 
E-ither sweet or 
S-our.
