Harder Today

~ Cheryl Anne 
This morning
I had to light 
all my candles;
and thankfully,
God lit the sun too.
Blessed Be She.
 
Yesterday was lost to me. 

Blanketed in snow,
inches deep; and 
even deeper melancholy;
both beautiful, but slippery. 

And as much as
I love the ground,
I do not wish to fall 
into this world's 
present madness
and growing sadness .

Long accused of 
outrageous optimism,
this is where I hope to stay;
but I am aware of having
to work harder today.

This morning
I had to light 
all my candles;
and thankfully ,
God lit the sun too.
Blessed Be She.

  2. Thank you, dear Soul Sister. I so needed this right now… I have but one candle… but there are many prayers and beseechings around her light….

    1. There is much work to be done in augmenting the Light at this time. It helps my heart; knowing your potent prayers are shining forth! Thank you for visiting Brigid’s Hearth, Dear Lady!

  3. I am reminded that even when we are pressed from all sides to the point of breaking, in those moments when we crack, only then can the light get in…or in your case my friend, the light breaks free from the depths. ❤️
