Through Darkness Came Light

  The
  darkest
  coldest night 
  crept in pushing
  out day's tranquil light
  feeding the hopeless cry
  of restless sleep, feasting on
  despair’s delight, with the pain of 
  daydreams dying deep inside my soul.
  God sent a dream of the coming dawn
  brilliant rays beaming the next day
  His own warm and glowing gift
  above the dense dark web
  the cold night had spun! 
  Reborn once more
  my restored
  hope for 
  day.
