Unheard Of Love Poem by Danny Speicher

Fading light glimmering upon a sunset cove
Nobody knows, nobody knows of the shadows
Secrets can hide in the shadows nobody knows
Too painful to speak, too shameful to think of

Shimmering is the last amber hue of the day
All creatures within the cove scurry to find
A shelter and fortress to shield their burdened mind
And they kneel to their knees as they fearfully pray

Prayers of forgiveness ascending far, far above
Words of penitence to a god they do not know
Hope for grace for they, the sinners, on Earth below
All looking in the dusk for this unheard of Love

Oh, moon... Stars... Oh, Creator of heavenly light
Illuminate the shadows... Guide us through the night
