    Finding Light

    Recurring thoughts and dreams
    revolve around a common theme
                about a light within
                a throbbing goodness
                ready to burst forth.
     
    Optimism wins each battle
    despite a cynic’s cooling heart
                as white knights
                on silver steeds
                wage war within.
     
    Reflections of a childhood
    filled with Brothers Grimm
                where evil lurks
                but cannot conquer
                as goodness triumphs.
     
    Tutored by a loving mother
    who believed in simple things
                like golden rules
                random acts of kindness
                and good deeds.
     
    Not surprising to find the seed
    For all the light and hope within
                that erupts as words
                on a blank screen
                not so random as they seem.
