Dancing Through the Light

The light Shining inside Vibrant as the sunshine Beckoning to souls with sweet grace Falling across the seas In gentle songs Of praise Laughter Breaking through rain In cloudless moments, joy Breathes soundlessly through the passions Of lingering hopes, dreams Rousing heartbeats Pulsing The light Touches the soul With butterfly kisses Whispered on the wonderous heart Who knows to pray with faith Heeding His still Small voice This love Brings tenderness Affection amazing Freeing us to pray with promise That we will find the truth Through prayer and Belief The light Dances like fire Or fireflies twinkling, lit Across the summer darkness, night Amid starry moonlight Enchanting, a Caress My God Lights the pathway To heaven, where we go When this life is over, finished We’ve been faithful servants Who are going Back home The light Reminds me why I want to know true love And faith that is alive, fervent Praising Him with desire For the time I’m With Him Heptastich Poetry Contest Sponsor: William Kekaula Syllables for each stanza is 2-4-6-8-4-6-2 May 16, 2021

Great poem Regina! I think the syllable count you’ve done is right - geometric, 2-4-6-8-6-4-2, whereas perhaps by error, the contest specifies 2-4-6-8-4-6-2. That’s why, I’ve held back, waiting for a clarification

Another faithful and blessed write Regina, I applaud your awesome relationship you have with God. I might not write many such poems but God is always there for me, and often I have conversations with him, and in my mind I listen to his answers. hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
