Sunshine of the Heart

by Mark Henderson

Mercy like sunshine
Descends from above
Warms the heart
On wavelengths of love

And speaks forgiveness
Through clouds of depression
Above the soiled fields
Of humanity's transgressions

And lifts faint souls
Upon winged like feet
To search the heavens
And its source to meet

Beyond this sphere
This material abode
Far above its seasons
Outside it's code

To ponds of peace
And rivers of hope
Upon oceans where faith
The language spoke

To a house of freedom
With rooms enough
Whose conversations
His unquenched love
