All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of
a single candle.”
― Francis of Assisi
______________________________________
darkness like a shroud covers the earth
it leaves us stumbling to see
the faces of the poor
it leaves us groping in the dark
for love
lost
it leaves us silent and afraid
cowering
in a corner of the universe
hopeless
and yet
even the smallest point of light
can defeat the darkness
just one word
one act
one touch
one smile
and the shroud is torn
asunder
