Hope.
Through the depth of ray soul's dark cloud, Through my spirit's enveloping shroud, A great light came, As the light of a conquering flame. And the sound of a voice I heard, As the song of a carolling bird, Whose heaven-sent lay Drove the compassing vapors away. And the path of my future was sweet With flowers that invited my feet, And the sky grew clear, And glowed with a smile of good cheer. And from over an orient flea Eose a hand that beckoned to me, Till my Btorm-beat soul Saw the light of its ultimate goal. — George Amfoosc Dcnnison.
