A Glow Over Halifax

As we wade through tidal pools

And we wash the pain away

Let them dare to make us fools

Let them say that we’ve gone 

Astray

 

I can only see your back

But I know you’re smiling wide

There is nothing that we lack

There is nothing can stop 

Our stride

 

Hillsides overflowing 

Fireweed and thistles

Violescent glowing

Over it all

​

When you rise above the fray

When you recognize the signs

There’s a light over the bay

And you know it’s all by

Design
