A Single Star To Me

A single star to me 
Reminds me of all the darkness
That surrounds it to try and take it's glow
I can see I once blended in amongst 
In the darkness where my eyes were shut
When God opens our eyes
We look up and see the few stars
That are a light to a dark world
For many it's hard to see they are a light
Because there is all darkness surrounding them
But when you look up at the stars
Remember you are one of those lights
And there are others out there
In this same fight to reveal the love of God
There will be cloudy and stormy days
But those stars are certain to reappear
For they have been placed there and given strength 
Then when I look at the moon I see a great light
That all these stars  resemble 
To seek to shine there light as that one
But remembers this is where they received
There lil glow to come out of the darkness
That one day there will be no more darkness
For all will be as the sunniest day
No clouds are gray skies to block behind
When all truth shall be revealed 
Enjoy your night out my friends. : )

Valsa George December 17, 2022 at 9:05 PM The surrounding darkness cannot blot out the glow of a star. It may be veiled from view due to the grey clouds. But it will come out finally once the clouds move away. I enjoyed the ending of the poem. There will come a time when darkness will be completely wiped out and there will be all sunshine. Lovely thoughts Stephen...
