My Valley of Hills
 
  From the hills afar and the valley below
could feel the earth shatter as you broke
my tender heart

Upon the valley to the hills carraiges
without any horses were all standing
still

Empty, and vacant with no existiing
power to ignite its lonely flame has
carried on without one less heart

As I climed each hill, and crept into
each new valley alone looking for
a ray of hope and clinging for any ray
of sunshine that only too proved
to become fruitless

Looking back now, I can understand
and thank you for the hills and valleys
inbetween what once was ever so
sweet, but now must paint a different
color to protect its hue.........

Bonnie Collins

A well described brilliant poem. Imagery was enchanting, creations of picturesque images and your message was conveyed so beautifully.

In this life we wil have many hills to climbs
meaning many disappointments and hurts
but it brings me joy to know God is there
to help us climb those hills and guide
us every step of the way...ENJOYED! ! !

Hugs,
Patricia
