Stepping Into the Unknown

Standing at the foot of the stairs
allow one’s eyes forwardly gaze
there’s light forcing itself at the brim
but one’s eyes see nothing just a haze

One starts to force your sight more fully
but remembering the road there is steep
as well as many kinds of twists and turns
so much to combat but keep focus real deep

This attractive light is so persuasive
it draws you upward and forward
no matter how hard this journey may be
have faith in oneself and go onward

This is filled with such symbolism
pointing to that powerful divine light
which attracts earthly beings of faith
to believe moving forward behold the sight

What a sight indeed it’s glorious
this light draws one to come in
to be seated at great banquet fare
there the king of glory will indeed win
