Speaks To Me

 A L O H A  From

Hope may seem 

A fragile thing,
Until you truly 
Hear it sing.

It hums beneath
All ache and fear,
A voice your spirit 
Learns to hear.

It blooms 
Where tears 
Have touched 
The ground,
Of mercy woven, 
Soft, profound.

Once you've felt 
Its steady flame,
You’ll never walk 
Through darkness 
The same.

Hope may seem 
A fragile thing,
Until you hear 
Its shoreline sing.

Rising with 
The breathing tide,
A quiet strength 
You'll find inside.

One day, your light
will silence the darkness,
and you will be
surrounded by the
beauty within.
A.D. Posey






You can make more friends 
in two months by becoming 
interested in other people 
than you can in two years 
by trying to get other people 
interested in you.
Dale Carnegie



When a friend
speaks to me,
whatever they say
is interesting.

The earth is resting,
and I am in need of rest, too.
In winter, I feel at home in
the silences of the world.
