Moonstone Eyes

Moonstone eyes hardened by life
Full of fight despite tears you cry
You see hate when we see faith
Your time will come be not afraid

Look inside and see destiny
Look outside and find peace
In the storms raging seas
Walk through thick and deep

Cloudy times from evil winds
Know that in time we all sin
Some lessons learned not easy to grow
Be of good faith for God is in control

Hey Karen, your poem is an uplifting reminder to persevere through difficult times with faith and inner strength. Your use of nature and spiritual references gives the poem a timeless, universal appeal, inviting readers to reflect on the sources of resilience and faith in their own lives. Through its gentle encouragement and reflective tone, the poem leaves the reader with a sense of hope and a reminder of the enduring power of faith, even amid life’s “cloudy times.”
