There is Always Hope


I wrote this back when I was living in Vail, Colorado. A very beautiful place that was impetus for some deep contemplation.

HOPE

Look to the sky on eagle wings.

See the majesty in all things.

Realize you are a part of everything,

The trees, the land, the cielo bleu.


Rush to the ground – falling fast.

Knowing all good things can't last.

Hit the ground with a crushing thud,

Pain, anguish, despair in the mud.


Look up to the sky and cry out loud.

Rest and mend those broken wings.

Hobble around for a bit,

Yet to fly again is worth the wait.
