Hallelujah, the Light Is Come Final Post

As the darkness filled the sky,
and day became night
The still set in,
by the candle's flickering light

Ponderings left her silent,
for she knew the days be short
The sweetness of summers nectar
Yea, the autumn winds blew North

She knew of second chances
as she revisited her past
A man's words of wisdom
with the stars that didn't last

He a realist
She a dreamer
Both too shy for affection,
too damned stubborn to compremise

By twilight's glimmer,
the stars fixed in the sky
She ponders of life
and love trickles o'er her brow

She begins a love letter
the strokes of her pen, so soft
If he only could see better
as the candle's flicker struggles, then gone

In the darkness once more
Yet this time she did not fear
For it was dusk!
Hallelujah the light is upon us!
she said

Sometimes I think of love, and life
as the days grow short it's clear
and I wonder if you'll remember me
and how much I truly love you Dear

Words are fluent as I write
There's nothing left to fear but fear
I shall see you on the other side!

:)

With Love, 
Lucinda Lu Price-Cayton

Cindy, this is a beautiful poem. It makes me feel sad reading it because you say it is your final post. I don't know you very well, but I hope this is not your final post. Not with such talent as this.
