In darkest times, a light persists,

A flame within that love insists.

Hope’s gentle glow, a beacon bright,

Guiding through the endless night.

Nurture it, let it grow,

In every heart, let kindness show.

The light within, our truest guide,

In love and hope, we all abide.

    This has such an old timey rhyme scheme, it really reads like a classic poem. I loved this!
