Light that lights all lights
Line of inquiry:
“we look for that light eternal
that does not come and go
the screen upon which life plays
cognised in staid stillness slow”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Blanket of stars mask a dreary sky
Haven of shadows, listening for the light
Who will shelter the memories, the moments
Concealed by a moon’s glow, softly recollecting
What it means to grieve for the lost midnights, stardust
Wings and blessings, the many things that make a heart
Rest in the night, where fireflies delight and trembling dew
Leaves its sigh over the gently glowing lights, the starlit dusk,
Twilight insights….
Dancing limbs on oaks and pines
Leave the spirit feeling more alive, more in love
With the peaceful smiles of wildflowers and sun’s glow
Blowing in the winds, still as grace and wonderfully alive
Aching to show the world what it means to give tranquility
Peace beyond words, falling over a lonely world, sanctifying
Slowly pouring out the music of love, the song that quiets the dark
The intimacy that rides on the stars, softly swaying in the distant thoughts…..
Breathless melodies shudder in the night
Silent dreams, softly flowing on the edge of light
Glowing, growing, knowing what is more than right
Fresh as the moon’s warmth, lustrous as the sun’s truth
Never afraid of what it is to radiate the comfort of a prayer
Always alive, always a part of this life’s sharing from the seas
Who listen to the silence and remember the waves who beat
Across the sands, the beaches in their eagerness to warm hearts
Eager to show the world what its like to love beyond the darkness
To love like God has taught us…
Starlight releases the tears, dew heavy
Caressing the wind, erasing the fears, the tears
With light that comes from the one who knows Him
The reason for the joy, the hope that covers a life’s dark
With light that strews its steady hand over the dimmest grief
Silencing the stars who wink like fireflies in the June breeze, sweet
As the inkling of a kiss beyond the stars, where the moon remembers
It is only September who desires the night’s laughing eyes, so very wise….
Twilight gentle spreads its gentle
On seas of souls who see His spirit
In the wind, in the sea, on the mountains
In the birds, in the trees, on the autumn leaves,
In the silence, in the storm, on the quiet of nightfall
In the light, in the dawn, on the morning’s gasping love
In the twilight, where light speaks of One who is known
For His gift of forgiveness, His gift of hope, His gift of love
That forever knows…
Despite the darkness, despite the night
We have a light that glows throughout life
A love that is brighter than the evening, night
Can never dim the glow of this love that just knows
Whatever God blesses with His love, His only Son, Jesus
Even the night cannot discourage those who remember this
“God is love and His light is forever near…
His light, dear one, is a light that forever lives,
A love that forever gives the soul it’s eternal bliss.”
Twilight’s song sings on and on
