SHADES OF HOPE
I didn’t realize that hope came in colors
And yet I see it swirled together in shades of pink, purple and light blue.
There on the horizon the colors are dazzling to the eyes as molecules are stretched to this amazing hue.
I didn’t know that wavelengths carried a message, that passing through the atmosphere they make known.
As they replace darkness with shades of hope they remind us, that soon the despair of night will be long gone.
It’s brilliant colors almost like the rainbow with a promise of its own to fill our hearts with gladness and cheer.
Brilliant colors all announcing as if with trumpets and fanfare the good news, that soon the sun is going to appear.
It is sunrise and it’s glorious to behold for the colors speak a language that is beyond any other scope.
I see it and it communicates to the very depths of my soul and these brilliant colors,… are the shades of hope.
