Gift of Light
A radiant light
The light fades
O radiant light
Jazmynn-1
cut through my darkness
Emerging
from my own shadow
I stood witness
to brilliant beauty
feeling glorious warmth
wash over me
as my heart
opened up
to sweet surrender.
yet the warmth remains.
I stand luminescent
ne'er to slip back
into the shadows
understanding
the light is not mine
for the keeping
but rather
a gift appearing
when most needed
a blessing.
remain forever
within me
that I might ever remember
my sweet surrender.
