Don't have many

Don't have many stories

but stories to tell

stories of Hope 

of doubt and of hell

 

all the light

could be smothered by lies

and cloudy visions

would surely arise

 

yet hope could bring us

rainbows with rain

and hope might lessen

very old pain

 

but doubt would hinder

all that was gained

if hope doesn't come 

to surface again

 

So, I'll not tell stories

of heaven or hell

but I'll lower my bucket

back into hope's well

 

with faith in our hearts

we will learn to cope

as we drink in pure love

from the waters of hope

If You find that " Water "

If You find that " Water " let Me know and I'll put down the Jack Daniels 


Every story-teller bends the myth to his own purpose. that's why a Hero has a thousand faces

Thumbs up

This is a really nice message to give.

I like the line 

 

'but doubt would hinder

all that was gained'


My mother was a rainbow

My father turned her grey

they loved me like a sky lantern

they watched me fly away
