A Healing Way

This is another poem that I wrote for a friend's birthday.

Compassion's spark doth lead the way
A peaceful, healing touch to follow
Joyful repose compassion brings
And in it's absence life is hollow

Loving grace on life descends
Leading the way to living light
Bitterness a long distant memory
Lost in mercy's graceful flight

Life's cares are e'er present
New worries always looming
The joys of life may fade away
A wilting rose ne'er blooming

When worry doth o'erwhelm
The father's trust remind
This world is but a misting glance
The truth the veil behind
