How can a heart expression find?
Expect a most agreeable letter, for not being overburdened with subject (having nothing at all to say), there shall be no check to my genius from beginning to end.
--Jane Austen
Ahead were the mountains and behind, the forest
and Nowhere to turn; I sat down and wept.
the routes were closed and the road was dead.
the past unforgivable and the future in Dread.
but then a Voice: "My child, why do you fear?
"Your hand is in Mine."
and the mountains parted and the forest, it shattered
into an eternity so fine, so sublime.
My God, my God, Thou shall not forsake me;
Thy still small voice shall stay and guide me;
till Death overtake me and Heaven envelop me;
Lead me in Thy way, my Lord and my God.
