Tender is the storm-
That heals a wounded soul,
Painstaking is the task-
That makes a person whole.
Courageous is the heart-
That fights the sleeting rain,
To find that wounded soul-
And take away the pain.

Patient is the hand-
That soothes a worried brow,
Forgives of past mistakes-
Teaches only here and now.

Trust is the key-
To strong internal mending,
Tenderly Courageous, Patiently Trusting-
Unwavering, Unbending.

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...
