Winter Glow

I wrote this poem a couple years ago. I think I've posted it before, but I really like it for this time of year. So indulge me.

Blackness borders shrunken days;
The weakened, chastened sunshine rays
Appear resigned to lose the fight
Against the dark, encroaching night...


Quick! Strike a flame! Let’s help the sun
Hold back the darkness! Everyone-
Raise up a candle, light a spark!
We won’t surrender to the dark...


We’ll BE the light- just watch us glow;
Illuminating smiles show
Where Kindness, Love, and Laughter dance
The Dark and Cold don’t stand a chance!
