Dark



There are clouds,
they steal the sun,
they abscond with the light,
they ridicule, they taunt and tease,
unrelenting,
unremitting,
dark, angry clouds.

say to my soul,
stay close,
don't fret,
for the day shall dawn again,
the first light will announce the promise
of new and wondrous things.

as I lie, murmuring and muttering,
cloaked in the dark,
let me pause,
let the sound of my heartbeat,,
the rise and fall of my breath
remind me of the miracle of life,
this treasured gift of being,
and this journey of darkness surrendering
to the hope in Your light and Life.
