Notes About The Poem

Tomorrow's Sun

Tomorrow's sun will bestow
generous rays of hope
when it emerges 
from under the cloak of dark clouds 
When the winter of discontent 
Is burnished 
by the sun's golden light. 
When broken people are mended
And all the lost are found
When hope floats
Over all the troubled seas
Of our world

Tomorrow's sun will shine 
infinitely brighter
When an overflowing cup 
of peace and love is passed 
from neighbor to neighbor, 
stranger to stranger
until all humanity drinks from it. 
It will continue to shine
When there are no more wars 
left to be fought, 
and a peaceful world 
is bathed in liquid gold.
