Resonance

Brighter so than burnished Gold, Is the spirit truth be told..' Where around the haven home, riches are beyond knowledge shown.. Enheartning though despair stands by..' The possibility's all; under Gods good sky, Where hearths are polished, by loving hands; there faith and perserverence stand! The time of the flesh a passing tide, till we go on through to Emmanuel's side Where no corruption there will be, under the boughs of the living tree.

I like the "living tree" idea coupled with family in this one. The metaphor is, for me, universal. Love, daver
