There will come a day
when the light will find you
and you will sigh no more.
I will be there in the fields of heaven,
gathering fistfuls of lavender for safekeeping.
Come find me.
I will wait.

“I'd rather see a sermon than hear one any day; I'd rather one should walk with me than merely tell the way: The eye's a better pupil and more willing than the ear, fine counsel is confusing, but example's always clear.” -Edgar Guest

OMG. Just OMG. That is so incredibly uplifting and inspirational. The coolest part about this poem is that once you have read it, it starts meaning more to you after you think about it and put it into your own situation. Wow you are incredibly talented. AMAZING WORK:) Come check out some of my work as well! I would appreciate it!
