The World of Light

The world of Light
By Michelle Morris

The world of Light
Is our identity
Our souls' flight
Throughout our lives 

The world of Light 
Is our choice
Forever and always
So lift your voices

The world of Light
Is our freedom
From tyranny and evil
Human limitations and demons

The world of Light 
Is our hearts' home
Our communal connection
God's grace and atonement

The world of Light
The world of Light
Touch it now
Your divinity shines

A marvelous verse, Michelle. I see a huge need for the world of light in today's society. I've never seen such darkness. Your words bring truth, encouragement to worship and hope. My favorite lines: "Our communal connection God's grace and atonement" Well done!

Thank you so much, John. I appreciate your insights, encouragement, support and kindness. I try to be a beacon of light and love in the world but it does get challenging. My personal experiences make me want to hide away from humans a lot of the time... But I remain optimistic and still believe in miracles and magic. Stay blessed and take care. Enjoy your weekend. :-)
