The Quest

Only the purest of hearts may follow
    Blindly she walks feeling her way
       All of life's burdens so heavy they lay
           Trying to fill up a heart that is hollow

Wonderful work, Sharon. Always very interesting and enjoyable reads. This reminds me a song which goes something like this...."...holding her candle that went out long ago..." sad but we are urged to keep trying... Have a wonderful weekend! Love, Annalise
