High Hopes

Like gulls, against a cloudy sky,
My troubled thoughts go flying by.
They spiral up and down and wind
Across the surface of my mind,
But as the wind blows clouds away,
High hopes will see me through the day
And on into the future too,
For when a problem comes in view,
God sends me hope in great supply,
To let me know He's standing by!

(smiles) Yay! God Bless You, sweet friend, know that He is the wind and we are the children of the wind who can choose to help brush clouds away and let the sun come out! (kiss on cheek) You have a giving golden heart, sweet friend, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Betty, thank you for sharing!

  

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
