To You – I Hope You Rise!

Words of encouragement for those who may need it! 🙂

On the darkest of nights,

When the shadows aren’t seen,

And hope is a distant dream.

You tend to feel a little lost,

not showing to the world – the emotion of distraught.

The road ahead is weary and worn,

You may be hurt, angry and torn.

Amid this adversity, a strength you seem to possess,

A dignified silence you give,

When the world is spreading venom and hate,

People may have formed an opinion and sealed the fate.

Your courage amid adversity is what shines through.

Here’s a little prayer I say for you,

I hope you find the strength to rise again.

and learn to smile again.

In the darkness, I hope you find your light,

When across the sky, an airplane flies.

and a shooting star is seen.

In the darkness, I hope you find your light,

when the lighting strikes the skies,

the stars twinkle like fairy lights

and the moon shines bright,

or when there is a meteor shower or two,

In the darkness, I hope you find your light,

And with you, we find it too.

The light which shines through

The one of love, acceptance, courage and hope

Sending you love, prayers and healing

Hoping you overcome life’s peculiar dealing

paving the way for humankind.

I hope you rise.

Rise you must, and rise tall.
