Hyacinth: A Poem {Guest Post}


My kind and lovely friend Courtney from Growing Is Beautiful shared the following poem on Instagram this week and has given me permission to repost it here for your encouragement and blessing.

Peeking up from the soil
while the world is
still cold and dark,
some might say
you are brave
and strong.
But I wonder
if it's only this:
you know who you are
and that you were made
for exactly this reason--
to soften the bitter edge of winter
with the glorious fragrance of Hope,
reminding every weary soul
that all is not lost.
