Sobright Poem by Joe Fraccalvieri

When there are no more battles left to fight
When wrong is gone, and left, is right
When there's no longer darkness-- only de-light
And all that we hear belongs within sight

No more fears that keep us from sleep--
nor tears in our eyes with which we would weep
Even the stars have vanished like vapor in the night
from the depths of heaven and the weight of its might

The sky we once knew is a newer hue of blue
Paper is torn to create a kite
and the string connects us to the source of its flight

There is nothing of substance that we can keep--
only faith do we hold for one final leap

At the hallowed sound of Gabriel's horn
truth is found as souls are reborn
And dreams of freedom have replaced our fright
Now all becomes new... And bright--
so bright...
