There was Hope when light was spotted in the dark;
Marching with a promise, we strode towards the glow;
But mysteriously never reaching the mark.
Rigid the passage, though we never let go.
Faith favorably accompanied en route;
And strangely the end was at arm’s length.
What could we do, for faith to boot?
For the light to be raised with the mighty strength.
Belief appeared and to our revelation,
The light was hoisted high to glow;
Relieved, we did not resign, to temptation;
But to our amazement, shadows engulfed us,
A twisted path to show..
Prayer perched aside - sweet and gentle,
And whispered a line of verse divine.
From the heart, the soul transcendental.
Then instantly, the light within us, shone to redefine.
To receive His blessings your heart should be clear,
And the light in your soul will shine to appear,
And take away all your worries and troubles,
And you will surely win all your battles.
Have always Hope, and you will never fumble
Sprinkle it with faith and you will not stumble.
Nurture it with care, it is a gift rare
Blend it with belief and top it all - with a Prayer.
Have always Hope, and you will never fumble Sprinkle it with faith and you will not stumble. Nurture it with care, it is a gift rare Blend it with belief and top it all - with a Prayer. Great stanza Roop! Loved it much!
A good poem on the power of prayer. You have hit the truth when you say: To receive His blessings your heart should be clear, And the light in your soul will shine to appear. Only a mirror that has been cleaned to perfection can really reflect, reflection being is true nature.
