Poem

Hope

I turn on the television
the newsreader in hectoring tones
recites
        his sorry litany;

Emergency
Catastrophe 
Disaster
Death

so I turn the television off;
notice how loud 
the birdsong is this evening 

and search for 
other words;

Generosity
Gratitude 
Tenderness
Love 

Spring bathes in gold tonight
-and by such light
hope slowly grows

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
