My Parents

~~~

They love unconditionally, with sacrifice.

They care with compassion, no matter the price.

May God fill them with abundant joy.

May they lean on everlasting peace, their thoughts to employ.

Even when life seems uncertain,

may they find gratitude behind a curtain.

Joy fills the hot air balloons of their hearts.

On heavens hues, they see an opportune headstart.

Reign in their minds as rain falls through the sky.

Provide them understanding when all they want to ask is, “why”?

    What a sweet way to honor your parents with both heart and hope. I think sometimes the best “why” is simply answered with love.
