Thought For The Day

By: Bradford Greer

Through all indignities that arise

that cut so sharply deep inside

We manage still to hold together

Our hearts are braced against foul weather

When tides that rip can pull us under

we stand our ground and do not plunder

under sea to coral reefs

that maine our minds of our beliefs

The souls of those we dare to touch

are treaded softly: they mean so much

Each precious life a treasured find

so who are you to be unkind

So when in doubt or when we fall

humanity’s hand will heed our call

for through the thunder that crashes above

We hold our heads high for still there is love.
