Lightwork Poem by Ted L Glines

LightWork
by Ted L Glines

Is it from jealousy
anger or spite
or some perverse spin
on wrongness or right
that some will attack
anything bright
as if to deny
the goodness of light?

We seek to bring
sweetness and calm
to chaotic souls
in search of balm
a hug for the lonely
a hopeful psalm...

But some will be angry
and rant and rail
bitterly try
to make us fail
blanket our light
while they weep and wail
and worship their dark
like some holy grail.

In spite of them all
in pure delight
we go forth to bring
salve to all blight
to wipe away tears
and clear your sight
so our world may sing
in love and light.
