I searched in my archives for a few poems about light.

these days
my heart is drawn
to pray more
and contemplate
the Light of the World

John 1: 5a (KJV): And the light shineth in darkness . . .

light shines
through one window
and falls on the wood
frame of another
the light is shared

every day a gift
from God and
so grateful

sunrise and
reflections
prayers

simple work
in the kitchen
time to read
every day a gift
