Poem: "PROMISES II"

PROMISES II (September 12, 2005)

My heart sings

Even in all this trouble,

As if it had wings.

And though the day be weary;

The times so dreary.

No matter what it brings,

My heart gently sings.

It sings of promises to come.

It talks about what we have been brought from.

And beyond all badness or things,

Gently, sweetly, my heart sings.

Though there be storm, sickness or riot,

My heart sings still, gently, so quiet!
