Tag: let your light shine
A poem of the power of song.
once there was a girl who sang to the night sky and her song hung the moon then the stars began to fall softly, like snowflakes into Winter's waiting hand the earth plunged into darkness and the only light was the melody that carried the moon away and on the darkest night the people sang and lit candles across the world Winter could not extinguish their brightness, so in a fit of rage he flung the stars into the sea where the melody carried them up, up, up to the sky and once again, the song swung the moon until Winter blew away
see yourself a swan a creature of beauty and grace, a dancer a diver, a dreamer a glider, a soft feathered friend a winged catcher of the wind a seeker, a swimmer an elegant shimmer see yourself a treasure more precious than jewels lovely, beloved bearer of good news a welcome companion with the warmest heart see yourself a masterpiece a stunning work of art see yourself through soft eyes, a forgiving lens that swirls and blends all the tiny imperfections into shimmering reflections see yourself in a dream come true living the life that was meant for you
How do you see yourself, my friend? I hope you know how truly loved you are.

This is a short story in verse, about ordinary brilliance and the inner light we carry. It is a reminder that all of us are light bearers – we are made to shine.
This is a reminder that beauty shines through brokenness.
Even in darkness, you are seen. Let your light shine.
The cracks and holes of the heart illuminate the beauty of the soul. To live broken is to pour fourth light, touching the darkest night with love.
A Poem About Alternate Routes, Back Roads, and Unexpected Treasure
Beauty grows in the ordinary, yes, but beauty also grows in unexpected places. This poem is for all of us, stuck in the traffic of life, needing to reroute. There are surprises off the beaten path!
We were stuck in traffic on the interstate, hours away from home, inch by inch we crawled, minutes ticked into an hour, until finally we were able to exit and take an alternate route, driving along unfamiliar back roads, through small towns with crumbling buildings, collapsed structures that reeked of neglect and poverty... and then we made a pit stop, a shabby gas station in a broken down town we found treasure not made of gold. The employees were light in a gloomy space. They laughed and bantered and welcomed. The cashier smiled warmly at us, an unforced rhythm of grace. She exuded life. It floated from her pores and touched everything, everyone around her, lifting spirits, relaxing shoulders, coaxing smiles. Flowers grow from cracks in cement. Colorful blossoms dance along roadside ditches, and beauty grows in backroad gas stations, where light shines like a beacon of hope.
