Stained Glass Window

Contest: All that glass
Sponsor: Nette Onclaud
Date: 10.06.2026

Casting dappled coloured shadows on darkened streets at night The chapel's stained glass window glows like a hued beacon bright Giving out the message of hope on a moonless night black Watching its glints, one can then cope with life's any attack Shades of maroon bleed on the street with golden yellow tints Tinges of soft blue and green meet to highlight subtle hints The chapel's open at all times Even at twelve midnight The stained window reflects and chimes that Jesus is The Light.

Dear Joanna, Congratulations on such a gentle, luminous faith. I love how you let the colors spill out onto the street, almost like the window is doing its own ministry long after the service ends. A beautiful piece. Blessings, Daniel
