These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Constant Truth

That some may cause to wonder, "Why?"
brings sadness to my day.
There are some, whose silent non-reply
may cause the dark to stay.

That some would make me stand in the rain,
while doing what they will,
becomes an awful mound of pain
with holes in the heart to fill.

But One will never leave adrift
the one, whose heart is changed.
In Hope, He gives new life to lift
the soul, now, rearranged.

The Son of God, born in a cave.
is Truth, all through and through.
He rose up from the stony grave
to save us, me and you.
