eyes of heaven laden with tears
filling thirsty rivers and streams
waiting for light to reappear
brighten my days, oh golden sphere
sailboats carry unfulfilled dreams
eyes of heaven laden with tears
drifting to some faraway pier
in a harbor of blue, hope gleams
waiting for light to reappear
beyond dark clouds, the sky is clear
dreams believed lost can be redeemed
eyes of heaven laden with tears
love softly whispers, in my ear
breathing in life or so it seems
waiting for light to reappear
breathing in life or so it seems
waiting for light to reappear
embracing hope, dispelling fears
brighten my days, oh golden sphere
eyes of heaven laden with tears
waiting for light to reappear
brighten my days, oh golden sphere
eyes of heaven laden with tears
waiting for light to reappear
I so hope that golden sphere shines on you, on us all, dries our tears and ushers in rainbows...
ReplyDeleteHi Truedessa - today we need more light to embrace hope, dispelling fears ... we have more tears here than we care for ... somehow we have to turn people's minds to care and compassion and love ... Hilary
ReplyDeleteA little golden light spreading through the darkness of night, can sure bring about much. Just a touch.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! The light will always return.
ReplyDelete'eyes of heaven laden with tears' & 'waiting for light to reappear' so aptly describe modern times...definitely a little light can dispel thousand years of darkness.
ReplyDeleteThe bright light of hope in the midst of unspeakably dark acts.
ReplyDeleteOh I hope that light will come for us all... lovely Villanelle.
ReplyDeleteI love the waiting for light to reappear.........and we do see it, as people rise up , together and individually, to do the right thing.
ReplyDeleteI think we do have to find a way to embrace hope...as we wait for light once more to appear. I hope I will see this light yet in my lifetime! Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore this especially; "beyond dark clouds, the sky is clear dreams believed lost can be redeemed eyes of heaven laden with tears" is so poignant.
ReplyDeleteAn awesome poem of Hope.
