Love Poem: The Light

The Light

Light pours out across the hills,
Destroying the darkness
With its reflections and sparks
Crystal clear, glistening
Through the doubts and confusion,
Awakening the silent yearnings,
Hopes lost in the past,
Dreams that you thought wouldn’t last

Light disturbs the secrets, silent
Amid the burning leaves,
Autumn’s breathlessness on display
Writing miracles to the wind,
Singing grace through the prayers,
Stirring wishes, fantasies,
In hues of amber, gold and scarlet
Rays of vibrant, energetic
Leaves so vivid and bright, alive
Like the autumn – so inviting

Light erases the mystery,
Quiet snowfalls, blessing the earth
In graceful glory, wonder – fresh
Like the feelings who bring gentling
Feelings, miracles so soothing,
Promising the moon and glittering
Like starlight unfolding on the night,
Rich as the sensation of laughter,
Silencing the fears, weary tears,
Who leave the heart breaking, the
Soul quaking, trembling
Beneath the crisp, cool mornings
Winter, restoring the heart
In a melody of growing insight

Light betrays the night,
Risking every glimmer, every sparkle
With the glowing promises
From the moments when hope
Sent her first wisdoms, intervening
Between doubt and confusion,
Removing the illusions, the tricks
Semblances of anxiety, dread
Worrying the moments, hesitating
To give way to the wonders
Flowing across the heavens in rich,
Vibrant hues, silhouettes 
Beneath the shadows, the light
Trickling through the clouds,
Hushing suspicions and rousing
The whimsical, the wistful,
Miracles as alive as the next moment
Happening just beyond the soul’s
Singing, the song alive
Like the music in the wind’s feathery
Hesitation through the leaves,
Breathing like the melody of autumn

Light, His light – brings a peace
Beyond description, serenity
Like the sounds of wings sailing
Across forever, coasting
Just beneath the clouds, whistling
In tunes that seem endless
As the soaring sentiments of praise
Gasping glimpses from amazing
Passages, journeying from forever,
Eternal like the grace, the heaviness
Light’s flames, His flowing appearing
The force of His spirit, impressing
On the heart, the soul – love
Like no other force in the world
Love – that sparkles in the glistening
Miracle of a Son who is the Wonderful
Beyond description, the Wonderful
That heals every fear, wipes away each tear,
Silences the darkness and reminds hearts
To listen to His light falling across the soul,
Inspiring the feeling, the Love that is 
His gift – His glowing tenderness, flowing
Through the heart and soul who knows
He is the Wonderful that is invincible,
Indefinable, unutterable – He is the light
That breaks away the doubt, colors
Hearts in hope and souls in joy unspeakable!

He really is the Wonderful - the light illuminates
With the unending faith inspired by His grace!
He is love – He is everything sent from above!
