Faith?

Faith?

A Poem by Alice Mumble

Faith sealed its sacred word
because the burden of its message
lost its hopeful appeal. 
Faith kissed gold coins
and cast them into the abyss
because the falling stars weren't working. 
Faith inspired artists to write,
although the words meant nothing 
and will mean nothing to anyone. 
Faith was a beat in the child's breast,
as she eagerly awaited her mother's return .
