The Star Of Hope

So much is changing in our world

and many ways have gone,

the Summer Solstice time is here

as Christmas season brings good cheer.

Much is passing and lives are lost

but keep on breathing in,

all that you need is love and peace.

And now.

A new way is here for us

to behold and to live in trust

that all around will support

those who nurture and give with kindness.

And those who know there is more

than what surrounds their everyday

will come together and share

courage and the strength to care.

Take heart and keep the faith

the light is on your path,

be open-hearted as best you are,

vulnerable in gentle ways

and being open lets those days

come through

to happen to you

in a delightful way,

when you never knew

that all around there are good times too

and folk who share themselves

to bring light to a dim place

and warmth to some strangers faces.

Let us be the ones

who carry the load another day

for a dear one who may be weary

and wondering if

love will bring a smile to them

so let us do what ere we may

to shine The Star Of Hope today.
