A Single Light

How wondrous that the darkest of nights,

acting, somehow, as a cold blanket

surrounding us all,

was to become, unsuspected at the time,

the host of the most significant star

to ever lighten heaven and

enlighten mankind.

The void, with that blazing beacon,

shone the way to redemption.

A single light in the sky

led the way to the heart of mankind.

The heart of a child.

The child of peace.
