One light

One light

shining from within

can burn so bright in any darkness.

 

Shadows might swallow one's sight,

turning any dream's shine to a hopeless night,

yet as long as we still

cling to that vision's flame

struck by God's match of love,

our hearts will not

feel the coldness

any eve's of doubt

might chill upon our soul.

 

To believe with the heart

grows eyes over the spirit,

casting a glow

which brings heaven's promises

into our black closets of fear.

 

Facing the clouds and seeing rain,

instead of merely storms

we listen for the thunder

knowing it is not danger,

but instead is

the voice of God.

 

As long as our eyes

never loss their hearing

for the tones of divine blessings

in expectancy

ringing out no matter other noise,

then we can always find treasure

where others see

trash.
