A Sliver Glows Silver

Life was different thenceforth;
                                               Day of reckoning led me
                                                    To fall, from grace!
                                              But, the One, had taken it
                                        With great love and forgiveness,
                                     For I found now the missing piece,
                             Through His messenger, from the Far East!
                            Freedom from ignorance is a real milestone;
                             For integrity is the object of insufferable con;
                             Still, I'm determined, for the true Fellowship!
                             Never will, to the prevalence of materialism,
                                 Nor, be worn down, by harrowing times!
                                     For there's only a sliver in darkness,
                                            Yet, its silver glow beckons,
                                                    "cos it is the light
                                         Of life, which I now possess!
                                       I forget all the cares of my days,
                                     For I trust the Lord's mighty hand,
                                          Guiding my soul, till the end!
