Strong Faith

When life is tough and rough
And no one seems to care,
when blood stops flowing and
sun refuses to shine,
but this persists in us,
we cannot neglect it,
If our love does fail
and our food turns sour,
friends abandon us.
foes attack our homes,
one thing still remains
in our soft hearts,
which strengthens us
and excites hope,
that can`t be quenched,
which is real
and cannot
be denied,
'strong faith'
 in  our
  God.

I want to thank you so much for your kind words on my writings Olusegun. I am so far behind on everything including my life away from PoetrySoup. So will you please forgive me if I am not right on top of my comments and thank you's. I am trying. It is a pleasure to read your poetry today as I leave you this thank you. Love and blessings, Carol
