the light
it is beautiful
and we love it, truly
but
sometimes
its brilliance
hurts;
it makes our shadows
so long.
For our love of the
little ones, whose souls burn so bright,
we will overcome the darkness
and bring forth the light.
For our love of the
children, whose hearts are full of grace,
we will finally make this world
a loving, peaceful place.
For our love of the
angels, so recently from Gods own nest,
we will, each and everyone,
at last be truly blessed.
