Even in Darkness
Even in darkness the light will shine. It may take time, but eventually it will appear.
Even in darkness,
there’s light.
It hides behind
mountains
and dying trees.
It takes its time
to rise
but its presences
is known
as it wipes away
the darkness
From our eyes.
And when
that light rises,
and reaches
its zenith in the sky,
its rays
touches all below,
making
gray fields green,
making
muddy brown streams
sparkle.
Flowers open to
reveal
its pleasant
secrets
as its scent
Sweetens
the brisk and pale air.
Everywhere,
life is renewed.
and we
forget the darkness will
prevail.
Soon the light
will lose
Its grand luster
And the
sparks of life
it lit
will be no more.
But the
light will be there
if you
look hard enough,
Follow
its path across
the sky.
There, beyond the
darkness.
is the path
of light.
Find it.
Grab it.
Hold it.
For though light is
Everlasting .
So is
darkness.
But the light
will be
there waiting
for the
immortal embrace.
Of you.
Of me.
Of all
that is good.
