Details of a hope

            A selection of words I had lined up to state but they
fell away when just one smile opened the doorway. Oh
how grand is the lighted morning trail. A silence that
beckons the spirit to soar. So quietly my lips curved and
a soft laugh exited.

           Kindness in a memory, indeed. The ones that bring
tears of joy and uplift where no one else can. Indeed
Jehovah at work. Smallness is the detail but so magnificent
is the meaning. Shh. Listen. Breathe. Hope.

         All yes, I do in the open morning breeze. Bundled
tight I was, walking and listening to the words just
roll off my mind. Opening the day into a wonder. I still
have many words to state but today they will just sit
in a locked room.

        Slowly I slide back into a corner until a vibrant smile
is directed at me. I still shine, nevertheless, and I hope
for more light. Still, though, what is mine to have?

       Hmm the mind asks questions. So far only one has
been concluded. Still so many more left open to see
what is revealed in time to come. Looking forward to
a hope, a dream that is mine to cling to, just as Jehovah
is.

       Sure the morning air is cold. Sure there are chances
of a scratchy throat later but I still hope for that smile.
Just one.

        Yes I understand we are all imperfect. Often times
our lives don't coincide with everyone else's but I like
to hope somewhere, sometime in the day, someone wants
to make me a special part of theirs. Ah, indeed, a lovely
little dream.

      A sigh begins to open. Not wanting to be down, I just
press the chores of this day into my mind. Demanding
I let them control the emotional Mary. Staying busy
is the easiest form of forgetfulness. At times I do so
love this idea.

    So gather yourself, dear friend of mine and enter
this morning's coolness. Take a moment to thank Jehovah
for your morning wakeup call and for friends who
sincerely care. I hope a day, this one, opens well
and gives you a grand piece of the joy awaiting all.

   Indeed I would hope you bestow the same upon me.
Alas, though, I cannot, will not beg.

   Ah a lasting smile sits as the day begins to turn faster.
Life is pulling and I am in full motion. Enjoy your day
my dear friend. I am hoping you get the chance to be
kind to a friend or two.
