Dull vision so heavy
with sorrows past,
let not your eyes close!
Show yourself unbowed.
Carry yourself proudly
survivor and lover
challenge perturbation
with a resolute heart.
Red were the roses
though the thorns be felt.
The flood be held back
but dry are the fields ahead.
Deny not the rain
for the sunshine can't stay.
Each day will bring another.
The open door brings fresh breeze.
