Living Light Poem by Patti Masterman

Living Light

Rating: 5.0


The words still live, though flesh must die;
Soft rot, like pumpkins left to lie,
While objects coarse succeed our death-
Naught is left of our brief bequests.

But up in heaven, in god's own eye
Is a sparkle, that is loath to die-
And if god wills it- if god weens-
That tiny light may still be seen.

This is a lovely poem. The transientness of the current life. The light within that may live on

Nice, very nice. Through it all there remains a glimmer of hope.
