Ray of Hope

They often say, “No night lasts forever,” and I feel this poem carries a similar sense of hope. Though the fleeting showers continue to fall, light breaks through, and eventually a rainbow appears. In life, too, there must be such moments. Even when difficulties and worries persist, somewhere a light shines, and before long, a rainbow-like sign may appear beyond the heart’s horizon.

The rainbow that appears after the rain has stopped feels like a quiet blessing from nature.
Through this poem, I hope someone’s day becomes just a little warmer.
