The Ladder of Hope

I am burning in the sweltering heat And it is just over a hundred degree The sun is burning in my head And a terrible pain is writhing in my neck And water is springing up in my face But I am holding on to my grace I was wondering how to ease this discomfort When all that I could see was a valley of trees Standing up in front of me and flies crusading in the ceiling And cobwebs stretching about Oh how it makes my spirit wants to shout Hope suddenly rose out of the ground And saturate my flesh and I breath A sigh of relief and my spirit emerge from the deep But my spirit began to weep and the tension rolled away And took all the bad feelings away And suddenly a streak of light filled the sky And Just as I thought of it the rain clouds burst open And fill my soul and cool down the temperature On the ground, nature is always standing by To rescue me from the heat and fill me up with words To climb the ladder of hope.
