"Be Blessed II"

Surrounded by darkness, I am filled with hope.
The glowing warmth of friendship overwhelms me.
Things will work out, if I can keep them in scope.
I see rest in my future, conflict to come,
But this too shall pass, I am learning to cope.
So goodnight my friends, rest well, and remember,
“Blessed are the peacemakers”
So,
Make peace and be blessed.

“Be Blessed 2”

Nice words. That picture of the sunset is amazing.

Thank you @steemmatt, I appreciate you stopping by.
I sure wish I had taken that photo, but it
Came from Unsplash.

Ahh, I was about to say that was an expert-level photo, but then again, you have a great eye to pick out a winner.

I got started doing this @steemmatt, before I began writing my own words.
I found sites like "Goodreads"(dotcom) among others, with quotes from
Authors or poets. I would search to find something that expressed
How I was feeling, then I would search to find an image that also
Expressed that feeling. Sometimes in searching for an image,
Suddenly I would find one that was much better at a prior
Post, and so I started saving the images.
After a couple of years doing that, I could no longer find
Writings by others that would adequately
Express what I felt, and so began my own
"writing career" (as it were) So yes, I
Like to think I can spot a good photo.
Thanks for the compliment. ♥
