Healing a Broken Heart
When the broken heart becomes lost and sadly will not mend,
in grief, it crawls ever weaker needing help to ascend
For if the trodden heart does not heal, it will surely die
love showers will bring rainbows when raindrops cloud the eye
The hopeless will need passion, the soul cannot abstain
a broken heart can mend when it feels love's embrace again
After the chill of winter, the earth needs the warmth of spring
as the doleful heart in silence soulfully desires to sing
Prayers will lift the broken heart with God's strength and healing touch
the clouds will part, the sun will shine, God's hand the heart will clutch
The spirit needs uplifting; give comfort to a forlorn friend
With abundant love, hope and friendship, the heart will surely mend
