The Radiance of Darkness


Light distorts life's beauty, to the degree of
clouded vision.


Light depreciates ones efforts to improve
upon humanity.


Light views every flaw, making all good
irrelevant.


Light is darkness turned inside out.


Our way becomes a foggy run away maze
in the presence of light.


But when the "Radiance of Darkness" appears,
the vision is cleared, and someone's efforts
are lifted to great prominence.


When the candle has gone out, it is then
Through darkness, that one's efforts
are illimined to the degree of deep, deep
apprreciation!!!
