Clouds of Hope

Clouds, sky, kites flying
Drawing and poetry by Leona J. Atkinson

I see

Patches of hope

White clouds of promise

Floating above the virus

Look up!

Rise up

Above the

Gloom and doom that’s creeping

Set your focus higher, freedom’s

Coming

In the dark of night

Kaleidoscope reveals

Broken dreams and tears

Yet the promise of new life

Appears amid the fragments

Tanka

(Based On Philippians 1:6 scripture)

The Promise Of Spring

Crocus flower

Oh worry not weary one

Spring shall surely come

Winter shall soon be done

Oh worry not weary one

Spring’s life has begun

And winter must succum

Oh worry not weary one

Spring shall surely come

Triolet

While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. Genesis 8:22

Assurance

College lawn full of robins

Promises of Spring

Abundantly appearing

Lawn full of robins

Haiku

While at my college today I happened to notice the lawn was filled with robins! So many of them hopping about, it was amazing to see that many at once! Very encouraging sign of Spring.

Revived

Bright sky

I sat with Despair

She held my hand and led me

Into sinking sand

Where I met disappointment

Doubt and disbelief

I watched my dreams fading

Near Disappearing

And then I felt a presence

A Hand lifting and leading

Me out to a better place

A land of hope and purpose

Where the Light shines

Upon dreams making them new

A firm foundation

Where no Disses can dwell

An encouraging

Place full of life where

I’m building a good future
