A Ray of Hope-The Unseen Strength

By Rumpa Chatterjee

When everything seems lost

Only shadows remain, 

When  a fragile bud fights desperately

To break through pain, 

When the nights feel stormy, fierce and dark, 

And when we long eagerly for a sacred spark, 

Then a gentle ray of hope lits up the heart, 

Weaves new dreams with the remnants of those broken apart. 

It's like a lantern carrying God's light, 

Acts as a bridge from fear to fight, 

 It sings in the silence, soft yet clear, 

Like the promise of spring in each passing year.
