Prayers on the Wind...

 If hope is a thing with feathers
then faith is the air on which it glides
to believe you need  to stand against ill winds
you cannot turn tail to run and hide
for in our tests rest the answers
without music would there be any dancers
sometimes all it takes is the nerve
to believe you have earned, to know you deserve
more than what has been your lot but what you have got
other than you own determination
that may waver in the face of adversity?

The simple Truths always come back to me
i feel, i love , i fail  - that is all a part o f me
but faith and hope lift me up
like a prayer fan held in my hand
hoping the spirits understand
that this tortured soul , like everyone one else
is a flawed man grasping at the wind
praying it carries him to a happy end...
