From my window
      I can see
      no rainbow
      nor soaring swallows
      only watchful crows
      watching my heart

      Even so
      my sorrowful spirits
      grow and grow
      never ever will mellow.
      I’m me
      like a pansy

      in winter meadow

      amidst drizzling snow
      standing tall and glow.
      Resilience
      is my faithful acquaintance
      in silence.

      for my other best friend is Hope.
      Come what may!
      It's okay
      I shall never dismay
      nor shall I ever stop my pray.
      I’m ready

      God will never leave me astray
      Resilience and Hope are here to stay.
