Time To Walk Firmly

There are days that the sky is not blue 
The heart is not bright 
But even in the darkness 
The seed sprouts 
And the light awaits us ahead
Be patient with yourself 
Gentle with your faults 
For every path needs time to walk firmly.

Darkness is just temporary. It just need time to cope up and be strong, steadfast and be acclimatize darkness for nostalgia and good introspection of life. Seeing yourself in darkness is seeing a dark house outside in a noon day afternoon. Come out from yourself is the best way to appreciate the beauty of the world outside. You will appreciate light if you are in darkness or vice versa feeling. I love your idea about this poem, Darlene. Love you more./Hugo.
