Whiteness

Chains tightly bound Around my Spirit. Hopelessness echoed Sounding doom in my ears. Fight, faith broken. The Sea of Anguish Had engulfed, canopied& enveloped. Then I looked to the Sky. My gleam of Hope Who nightly strokes The sorrowful world. Her soothing light Ceaselessly shifting form. Eternally illuminating a path For the Lost. Unlike her blinding cousin, The Sun, who scorches& scalds. The Moon tenderly kisses The face of the Earth. Unlike the orange-red glare, signaling misfortune. White light glows, promising a New Dawn. Look out your window! Look out your window! Get a glimpse, she is Full maybe Half tomorrow quarter. Get touched, the crescents heightening Whiteness. Her untainted Purity.
