Sometimes You Just Know


Sometimes you just know.
In the still small twilight,
In the whisper of the stars,
In the rippling of water
And the soft caress of rain,
You know.

Sometimes you just know.
In the touch of a child’s finger,
The confiding of their smile,
In the tears that wreath our gratitude
And the laughter of our freedom,
You know.

Sometimes you just know.
When the thunder shakes your mettle
And the rainbow lifts the sky,
When the wanting is too dreadful
And the tongue runs out of words,
You know.

Sometimes you just know.
In the silence past the violence,
In the courage to go on,
In the prayer that changes all things
And the hope that weaves the world,
You know.

Sometimes you just know.
