Little Lights

For my mother,

Lights in the darkness save humanity.
Like stars in the night sky.
Their glow illuminates our paths.
It guides us through the void.
A helping hand to the lost and lonely.
Not an inferno that scathes the body.
But, a cool, and gentle glow.
For purpose of a direction of living.
To continue to be who we are.
That light at the end of the tunnel.
Forever pushing us onward.
Encouraging us not to fall in despair.
We are the stars that save us.
Not for use to our own soul.
We light the hopes of our brethren.
Reassuring each other we aren't alone.
Becoming a constellation in the night.
Stronger than Orion,
Bigger than Ursa Major.
Continue to shine selflessly for others,
Little lights that dance in the night.

Thank you,
Christopher
