in a world of chaos
in a world of horror
glimmers of joy
can be found everywhere
like lilies amongst the thorns
in the random acts of kindness
of strangers
in the kindness and love
of those whom we will never meet
whose words give us hope
in the beauty of nature
in the love of our furry friends
they can't take that away from us
good will triumph over evil
it may take a while


Thank you, Rall, for the words and the images. Wise and true; and at times like these, we need reminding.
ReplyDeleteA sweet reminder. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I needed that!
ReplyDeleteThere is such warmth and openness in this poem - a real tonic in the world at large
ReplyDeleteGood will triumph over evil.
ReplyDeleteAfter the night comes the dawn.
I sew a blanket of comfort made from the simple joys in my life. On the coldest days they keep me just warm enough to make it to the next day.
ReplyDeleteI wait impatiently for the dawn.
