A Beacon Ever Bright

A radiant rose grows
within every human heart
a seed of life that’s heaven-sent
at the very start.

This life can blossom beautifully
when nurtured daily with Love
even ‘midst the thorns of life
we’re surely aware of.

For Love is the water
that daily brings new life
guiding and directing us
as a beacon ever bright.

Love shares encouragement
when thorns get in the way
offering words of kindness
and healing in what we say.

Love helps us to see beyond
the failings of each other
treating everyone with respect
‘cause we’re all sisters and brothers.

May it be said when our life’s done
that we have truly shared
God’s Love and wisdom daily
as our most heartfelt prayer.
