A Beautiful Morning

 
                       There must be a beautiful morning somewhere
                            A dawn lit by justice and judgment is fair
                            A place where a helping hand is held out
                         An ear that will listen stands poised and devout

                       A place you can go when your heart needs attending
                         A place where a spirit gets healing and mending
                       A place where love's fire burns bright day and night
                         And in from the cold you may warm by its light

                          There must be a brilliant evening somewhere
                          Where the sun finally sets on pain and despair
                        Where the coming of night is not filled with grief
                          And comforting sleep brings you joyful relief

                            A place where the sunset is apt to reflect
                            A day without malice, without disrespect
                          A place where the only tears shed, are for joy
                       And a heart is not battered and bounced like a toy

                           There must be a wonderful day somewhere
                        In a place filled with love and a great need to care
                         A place where the burdens of conflict are lifted
                           Where love is a skill and all lovers are gifted

                         Where daily are spoken the words that support
                            And every mistake is not met with retort
                       A place where the land has not soaked up the blood
                         Where honor and truth are not cast in the mud

                          A place where the children are not left alone
                         Where Sisters and Brothers may come to atone
                        Where homeless and helpless don't cower in fright
                      Where the hearts and the minds of the world can unite

                          So you set on a journey to seek out this land
                          With compass and map and a vision so grand
                       To find peace and comfort in a world that's so new
                          Where waters are crystal and skies are so blue

                        With showers that cleanse and winds that refresh
                           Where the spirit is fed and not just the flesh
                        But search as you may, what you'll find to be true
                       That it cannot be found, until it's found within you.
