"out of Darkness Came Light"

Black holes in space
Not monsters that waste
They have their place
Center Master’s face

Eventful potentials
Mouths are essentials
Not to be quailed
Potential filled wells

By Word of truth
Potential filled booths
By no man go aloof
Look around see proof

`Tis not a spoof
You may accept truth
These surrogate faces
Indigenous’ oases 

Out of darkness of mouth
Word potential doth spouse
Darkness comprehends not
Light by words begot

Darkness leads a horde
Broad is the way
The word doth not say
But out of darkness
The word doth say, “Light”

Word’s light shall man live by
Lest in darkness cry
Within the dark of eye
It shall be the lie!

Especially like the last stanza...WORD'S LIGHT..In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God and The Word came to dwell among men...Great thoughts that you have put out there...Keep the creative pen flowing. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work.. Sara
