She rises from the mist, a stranger
new only in our minds
full of promise, hope, uncertainty.
Resolutions are frolicking dogs
hard running hounds
soon to perish along life's roadways.
Good intentions are high-flying doves,
character is the hunter's shotgun,
the trapper's snare, the fisherman's hook.
God's grace is sufficient
to those who trust and cling
to those whose soul submits
to those who softly sing.
