Crack And Cranny

To the one I love Just because... And to those who love life And those who love love! Through every cranny, every crack In every nook of every room It seeks to fill the empty space And lift the shadowed shade of gloom So be it hastened by the heart Or blessed by universal source Without it, life would simply cease So never doubt its mighty force And you, my sweet, on every day Give freely of your precious gift And fill this bleak and barren void To shatter darkness, sure and swift Yes, it is light of which I scribe Of which each crack and cranny holds No matter where and in my heart I feel the love that it enfolds

Wow, Mike. Those words just hit differently. Seriously. The way you captured that feeling of love as light sneaking into every nook, chasing away the shadows. It’s so true, and it’s so you. You always manage to shine a light into the places that need it most. It brightened mine and so deserving of POTD. Spring Blessings, My Friend, Daniel

Your poetry always deserves more recognition that it receives, Mike. How nice to have one chosen that was written by a human rather than AI.

When I saw the title, I thought there's many directions a 'crack and cranny' title could go. So very uplifting to find it was a sincere, heart-lit, gratitude filled, love acknowledging poem. Everyone could benefit from wrapping up inside this lovely poem. A gift from Mike, that's what poets are for! CayCay
