Door of Hope

(A reflection on Hosea chapter 2 verses 14 & 15)

Dry lands,
Barren sands.
In the silence,
an echo's heard.
In the desert
is a door of hope.
Suddenly
a sweeping tide
embraces all,
Brings refreshment,
joy,
love.
Love never ceasing
flows from above.
Love so fragile
offered below.
Dry lands,
Barren sands,
Burst forth with life.
Creator and created
walk together
through the door of hope.
