The Light

Your illuminating light found me when I was surrounded by darkness. It gave me a reason to live when death haunted my mind. It caused me to experience joy when sadness was my best friend. Your amazing light showed me a love that I've never experienced before. It causes me to see beauty in a world plagued by the ugliness of hate. Finally, your light gives me a reason to get up each morning, no matter what challenges I’ll have to face. Contest:The Light Sponsor: Regina McIntosh 12/03/2020

It only takes a caring loved one or a good friend to bring light into your life. It can make such a difference. Tom

I wish I had your kind of faith. I have not had much experience with "the light" so probably won't try this challenge. I hope to see it one day. I've had friends who actually experienced it and told me how wonderful it is. GREAT poem.
