Guiding Light

Gary Edward Geraci

 

The warm reflection I see

while kneeling in the back

of the church is light reflecting

and cascading

 

over rows of perfectly

leveled wood pews, perfectly

seated seating; the pew tops,

a long runway for soft light,

 

comforting light,

drawing light,

relinquishing light.

 

Incandescent filaments

filling the space

with sacramental grace,

a sacred space,

 

and it makes its way back to me;

light on wood, it penetrates

and cuts to my soul

filling it:

 

comfort and consolation,

inspiration, child like inspiration;

exactly the place where I need to be.

    What a nice write Gary. The way you've strung the words together is refreshing.
