With the Light, Comes Hope

As the sun fades behind the horizon Relenting it's hold on the nation, Darkness, with steady steps and might Clutches in and set to fright The gloves that holds my peace, Shattering them, piece, by piece. Laying the mind bare, For a thousand thoughts to run in despair. The silence of nature entwining With the Owl's hooting shattering The ominous silence, Tells of another invisible presence That sends the shivers down the spine Unraveling thoughts of man and Divine. The cockerel's shouts prepares the way For all creatures home and away And me clinging to my soul in desperation To prepare for a new vibration. As the new light emerges and I cut off the rope, I smiled, for with the light, comes hope © Temajung Michael T.
