A Steady Light

In a dark, uncaring world such as ours, there must me a steady light at all times: bring your candles and your Christmas's carol books without being told... ring out bells to the wild sky overlooking the bright and peaceful road! Darkness has prevailed since our ancestors sinned, let it end today to face a blessed day never imagined: honor and worship your God by praising Him for His undeserved kindness... ring out wild bells to the wild sky awaiting profound peace found in stillness! A loving brother should never hate his own brother so kind, as Cane did with premeditated murder on his carnal mind: realize the heinous action that initiated the flow of first, innocent blood... ring out wild bells to the wild sky as everybody smiles and sings out loud! Harmony has finally returned after a long absence, to change hearts and minds and instill confidence: angels peak and delight in seeing the happy smiles on faces below... ring out wild bells to the sky on the jolliest season buried in snow!
