Sonnet for Divine Light

The gift of divine light
is forevermore than bright,
but it is for the holy life and spirit.
Its power is in goodness
with a shield and a bow.
It is God’s fortress
of protection aglow.
To harness this love goes –

for it is without fear,
but watching birth grow.
It is of Heaven
with peace on its wings
bringing beginnings again
and joy on a string.

Psalm 145
