Welcome to the Illuminations and Sparks of Brilliance Archive of Verse
I wrote the following for all of you who wrestle with the challenges of loss...Ken
"New Day..."
The night, it seems, can last forever
And in that darkness, the cries of tearful weather
Minutes of days and hours of years
Sometimes drowning in a sea of tears
We do not know how to comfort this pain
All we know is that it continues to rain
Inclined to ask, “How long will it last?”
And then to ourselves, “Will this pain ever pass?”
In the midst of the storm a sparrow does sing
Subtle, sweet music begins healing the sting
She sings about life and the fresh day anew
And slowly her song does change the old view
Dawn then begins to break through the night
What was once darkness begins to be light
Again we do breathe...one breath at a time
The sparrow sings her sweet song...a so perfect rhyme
We know not why the night does appear
And what we don’t know, we then tend to fear
But as this New Day breaks through from the night
We are born once again...we are given new light...
