Today’s Reflection ~ Hope

Today might not be so good. But tomorrow, you got another chance to get it right. David Baldacci

To The Thawing Wind ~ Robert Frost

COME with rain, O loud Southwester!     
Bring the singer, bring the nester;     
Give the buried flower a dream;     
Make the settled snow-bank steam;     
Find the brown beneath the white;     
But whate'er you do to-night,     
Bathe my window, make it flow,     
Melt it as the ices go;     
Melt the glass and leave the sticks     
Like a hermit's crucifix;     
Burst into my narrow stall;     
Swing the picture on the wall;     
Run the rattling pages o'er;     
Scatter poems on the floor;     
Turn the poet out of door.

Don’t Worry if Your Job is Small

Don’t worry if your job is small,

And your reward are few.

Remember that the mighty oak,

Was once a nut like you.

Hope ~ Anonymous

Never go gloomy, man with a mind,
    Hope is a better companion than fear;
  Providence, ever benignant and kind,
    Gives with a smile what you take with a tear;
      All will be right,
      Look to the light.
  Morning was ever the daughter of night;
  All that was black will be all that is bright,
     Cheerily, cheerily, then cheer up.

  Many a foe is a friend in disguise,
    Many a trouble a blessing most true,
  Helping the heart to be happy and wise,
    With love ever precious and joys ever new.
      Stand in the van,
      Strike like a man!
  This is the bravest and cleverest plan;
  Trusting in God while you do what you can.
     Cheerily, cheerily, then cheer up.

Crossing the Bar ~ Tennyson

Crossing The Bar 

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.
