Into the Light

Goldfinch60



I look out at the cloud ridden sky,

The light hidden by the darkness.

My mind reaches upwards,

Touches the clouds,

A gap appears.

I rise up into the light,

That light that is always there,

Always there around me.

I look back and the gap has closed,

But I am free of the dark.

I travel in the light

Towards that wonder,

That wonder of eternity,

And beyond.

      Brilliant! your light emanates wonderfully from you and with the morning sun and the violin playing, I'm left with balance in mind.

      Thank you for sharing
      Much peace and respect

              Andy,

              A luminous poem indeed!
              We are so fortunate to have you as our “lighthouse” on this wonderful site. When we are in a fog, we look toward that “lighthouse” to guide us! Thank you for being you!

              I enjoyed Ennio & Andrea Morricone’s Cinema Paradiso theme!

              Love to Joyce and you!

              ~Laura~

                You are so kind Laura.

                I like all Ennio Morricone's work, I have a lot of it but he is a very prolific composer.

                • Laura🌻

                  That he is!

                  • Goldfinch60

                    Thank you Lorna, I will not get pulled down in spite of the problems, I am not built that way.
