And in the light I see
The beacon stayed true
To guide us through
The darkling pass
We navigated
The long night
To morning’s welcome
This new shore
Beckoning
We navigated
The long night
To morning’s welcome
This new shore
Beckoning
But that is plenty bright enough
I am struck by the depth of gratitude
Rising like a sun with my own inner light
For the guidance, support and encouragement
Offered by family and friends and mentors
And the generous kindness of strangers
Who have made of themselves
Friends
I stand here
In the light
With my platoon
Ready to take on
Anything

The black and white

To gloom within
Then light of day
Too dim by far
The dimmest star
The light within
So then seek I
A beacon bright
To light the way
A light without
It always
Rings true
Guiding me through
To touch
And be touched
By people
I may never see again
But who will forever
Change my world
I find my way
Through the narrow channel
Guided by a friendly light
I call for it
In times of need
Or if too dark
It calls on me
It guides me true
Though rarely easy
But I know my path
When e’er I follow
My golden heart
In silence
I listen
In darkness
I find light
In mystery
I find insight
In questions
I find…
