Shaft of Light

The sky is black like the night      No moon no stars no guiding light      The wind 
is screaming      Holding back the sun`s beaming   The clouds are sobbing tears 
from the sky  Eyes look to the heavens asking the question why     Suddenly a 
shaft of light blinding all that see      Clearing the blackness of a world of what 
could be     A ray of sunshine now envelops the land     Telling all being alive is 
simply grand
