Song of Hope


Quoted is Emily Dickinson's wonderful poem, "HOPE is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul, and sings the song without the words, and never stops at all."

Hope. I never understood hope, just like I never understood Grace. I think they go hand in hand. Along with Love and Faith. Emily describes it to a tee, with hope being that never-ending song deep inside. It's there even when we are not.
I know that song resonates to me in the darkest days, and when the sun rises I can hear again.
