Hope arrived... limping severely. The journey had been quite long, Searching for Something to hold on to. Hope was weak but would not give up, There is always hope, no matter how small. For: βHope springs eternalβ.
Faith was greatly weakened and vulnerable, Wounded by the words of discouragement. Naysayers of the day were chipping away. Faith needed help to overcome Doubt. Lurking close by... and closing in.... Keep the Faith Baby!
Love felt lonely and threatened. In need of some friends to lean on. The days were long and dreary with Hate knocking at everyone's door. Love glimpsed Faith approaching and knew Hope was not far behind.
Hope, Faith, Love; Together, they formed a bond and Began flourishing once again! Together, they opened the door of the heart in need of repair. Together, they rescued a heart, Filling it to overflowing.
Love began to grow and blossom, Bringing Light to the darkened heart. Hope, walking tall and standing straight, Began to breath deep again. Faith leaped forward with renewed vigor to guard the Heart's door The Three Musketeers... together... Unstoppable... Conquer the world.
