Shining Light
Morning has broken
Yet remains whole
and continues to evolve
Until night gently
lays down its covers.

When you feel broken
Know that you too are whole
and will continue to evolve.

Let the dark and unseen
nurture your being
and prepare you for the light
through the end of your days

    This is beautiful, Val. I just sent a copy of it to a dear friend who lost her husband two months ago after I hung up with her!

    Beautiful poem, Val. Nature has much to teach us about patience, trust, and change.

      Yes. I enjoyed the hymn and Cat Steven’s song. So interesting to make that connection to our own sense of being.
      Thanks so much Sue 💐🙏🏻💞

    Love this poem and photos, Val. It’s a life of cycles…yes? We ride the wave and hopefully have grace in the lows…it’s easy to be happy in the highs. Here’s to grace!
