The Rays Of Light Tell A Story Poem by Bradley Lester

She's standing in the moonlight
Just staring upwards now
Her posture is so still
I look and think oh wow
The light that shines upon her face
Like butterflies of rays
Just touching stroking comforting
Her burdened heavy days

Her eyelids blink and dance
Upon her sparkling eyes
Remem'bring pain of past
Her inward heartful cries
She knows she must be strong
Her focus seems to fade
She's tired now and sighs
Her heart of gold is made
