Poem: Shine

Shine a light where shadows sleep,
Where silence grows and sorrows creep.
Let golden beams through cracks unfold,
To warm the hearts grown dim and cold.

Shine a light where hope is thin,
Where fear has settled deep within.
Let it break the walls of stone,
So no one walks the night alone.

Shine a light on whispered pain,
The tears that fall like unseen rain.
Let truth be heard, let voices rise,
Like dawn reclaiming stormy skies.

Shine a light not just to see—
But to reveal what could still be.
A spark of love, a thread of grace,
A hand to hold in every place.

Darkness flees where courage stays,
And kindness carves the brighter ways.
So be the lamp, the star, the flame—
And shine, though no one knows your name.

Thank-you for reading.

Much Love and Light,

Brenda Marie
