where hope’s fallen through
are some of the best reasons
for starting anew.

mourning is for those
who wholeheartedly believe
there is no reprise.

morning is the time
hopeful souls rely upon
just before the dawn.

in the quiet place,
with the quiet people,
we sit, we listen,

hoping to recognize,
hoping to receive
the still, small voice Divine.
