Tears dewed her lashes
As she pinned her hopes on the celestine
Words rescued from dirt and ashes
From the good, the bad and everything in between

Hath these words speak of the darkness left in sight?
Do they portray the upheavals of the present and the past in every morning dew?
Will they stand for the thousands of offenders and the upright?
Are stories of success and failures ever told too?

Will the sunshine ever reveal a lovely hue?
Will the rain ever unravel a picturesque view?
Is sadness hidden in every toast of martini and sangria?
Does happiness roar in realizing a dream trip in Tennessee or Alabama?

The heart resounds a collection of tiny and giant leaps of faith
May it be a journey towards finding one's soulmate
Or a daydream that things will never be too late
And even the idea of living a life unimagined will never be out of date

Tears dried up soon enough
As she gazed upon the celestine
With a sea of thoughts of the "ought to be" and "could have been"
The wind blew the words so calm and serene
