how does this song sing on,
weaving gentle
yet insistent melodies
drawing
light from darkness,
joy from sorrow,
bringing healing
in the midst of pain..?
and how does a song sing on
calming the storm
when the storm rages
again and again?
and how does this melody
ever ancient, ever new
call chaos to order
and re-order?
and why does the singer
keep on singing
as problems surface
emerging and re-emerging?

Her name is wisdom,
and she knows time from times end,
her name is light,
and she will not be overcome,
her name is love,
and she will not give up,
and so she sings
through the day,
through the night,
her name is hope,
her hope; that
we will learn and join
her song...
