Read MoreLove Will Begin…
In the light that dances from the dawn, In the soft hymn of a morning song, In the broken spaces, shattered shards, Stood a man, resilient, bearing God’s regards. I’ve known love that’s been tainted and scarred, Wounds that run deep, heart ached and marred. Yet, in the silence, where […]
