The Light Still Shines

By Fred

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

To Aunt Angie1949                    2000battle fought        victory wonIt seemed so dark the day God took youLike a foggy, cloudiness we couldn't see thru.Like a cold mist had settled in our heartsYes it was a rainy, pitch black dark.What we failed to remember is God's lightThat will guide us even through the darkest night.See the light still shines, at the tunnel's endIt's the light from the lantern of Jesus our friend.We'll miss you Aunt Angie, indeed we willWords can't express the pain we feelBut at least we know your light didn't fadeAnd of His glorious coming you weren't afraidYou ran toward Jesus at your tunnel's finaleIt's not like you tread a cold narrow alleyYou merely added your bright light to His lampAs the Master escorted you up heaven's ramp.
