on this day


on this day
may hope rise out of forgotten places
as spring emerges from the depths of winter
may joy scatter its petals on your hearts
and faith hold up your arms

on this day
may love caress the aching scars
and ease the hidden pains you carry
allowing you to nestle in the care
of your one protector

on this day
may radiance transform your faces
and sink deep, soul deep, beneath the skin
encouraging you to believe that life
will be beautiful yet

Thank you for yet another encouragement. Your bogs have often encouraged me in the tough season I am in although I don't even know you!
Thank you.

That was very nice to read. It is touching and very real.
