There is a music that weeps comfort, Through the distance, in quiet moments, Healing and blessing, reminding that His gentle grace Will flow from the heavens, embracing, Surrounding hearts with a lasting light – the source Of love, His love… There is a single tear, that whispers softly, Through the spirit who listens To the silence, the heartfelt lonely, Blowing beyond the oaks and pines, in the forests Of kindness, where He stirs the mind – With feelings, beautiful… There is the ghostlike echo, flinging wildly, Endless prayers, who need to blaze, Through the darkness, Erasing shadows who aspire to reach the maze, Trails of lessons, imaginations, amazed, Singing to the soul with wounds, hearts broken By the griefs, the regrets…. There is harmony in prayers, praises, blessings, Shedding dewlike promises, Lyrics wild like the roaring waves on seas, Meant to bring the spirit incredulity, Based on sunset tangerine, in buttery dreams, While the azure skies secret stars, Glistening in the inferno of a blazing serenity… There is marvelous in the dance between, Yesterday and circumstance, Waltzing in faded feelings, mysteries, Erasing the darkness, the night’s wistful Melancholy, deaf to all the poetry Found inside a leafy grace, a stem of faith, Where life begins and hides each glimpse Past memories, tell-tell signs, Breathless signs of what is to come… There is life in the yesterdays, the hues of light, Falling past the memories, Hesitating to believe the truth, trembling, On the edges of sanity, silhouettes Glowing, embers of lasting lessons, growing, Messages from moments, history Coaching the lingering yearnings to believe…. There is a song in each sleeping chapter, Within this book of hopes and dreams, Solitude beckoning from its destiny of charms, Rewriting the moments, soft photos, Fragile details in the shadows, selling joy, Breathless thanks, heartfelt longings, Breaking through the night, Darkest moments just before the dawn… When I tell you that I love you, my heart beats, Like it is breaking, … It never hesitates to assure, There is a poem hiding in the lines, Between you and me, Between hopes and dreams, Between the shadow and the light, Between what is wrong and right… When I tell you that I love you, my heart is breaking for you.

exquisite in message and detail, especially your imagery. I especially liked these lines: Past memories, tell-tell signs, Breathless signs of what is to come… There is life in the yesterdays, the hues of light, Falling past the memories, My heart breaks when I think of what Jesus did for us...a delightful read this morning. Have a great week, hugs, Sara Hesitating to believe the truth, trembling,
