THE CANDLE OF OLD, THE CANDLE OF NEW

Folder: 
JOURNAL#31

I love THE with a towering passion

no sweet injustice could abscond with

such serenity of feeling

unbearable battles may indeed lie ahead

but they finish me not

nor worry me long

for I am stronger in my love

and broader in my mind's scope

I seek what I set forth to shine upon

the light of inner being

who's candle can not be extinguished

with the crushing enforcement

of another's blow.................
