~ A Voice Does
Return ~
Been on a
vacation, just
to learn some
new words
More ways to
combine them, so
they are heard
In stories new,
for the growing
of love and life
And for songs of
honor, coming
from ease or
strife.
Much has
happened, since
the last time I
spoke
New life being
born, giving us
sweet future
hope
But pain has
risen it's ugly
head again
Bringing worry,
like unseasonal
summer rain.
Yet, above it
all, new friends
I have met
But the old
ones, I would
never forget
The Lord has
given me reason
to rejoice
As once again,
He's giving my
words a voice.
So my friends,
soon you will
see new stories
unfold
Ones of spirit
and love still
yet untold
Adventures I
have learned,
from past days
But just for
now, these
secrets I will
not give away.
