Poetry
Silver Light
Silver light shining all around
Through the treetops to the windswept ground
What a difference you make;
Without you I am blinkered, groping
Like a little child who's hoping
For a friendly hand.
Brilliant moon shining on my way,
Lighting all around as if 'twere day,
Like a friend you are;
And yet how very strange to think
That even when it's black as ink
You're always there
Blue skies high above my head,
Like softest satin on a silken bed,
Where have you gone?
Disappeared you are from view,
Overcast by darker hue
Of leaden clouds.
How precious is our Father's love,
Sometimes streaming from above,
Sometimes all unseen;
Yet underneath and all around,
Without a movement or a sound,
He holds us in His arms.
Never doubt that He is with you
Whatever other folks may tell you
In whispers or aloud.
He will never leave or fail you,
Always care for and sustain you:
Only trust in Him.
