A-Z Challenge: L

L is for Light

 

 

 

 

 

 

Light at Eventide

Soft and forgiving,
it loves the boats
floating in the estuary.
They would stay without
anchorage.
Acceptance is
smooth as glass,
a shelter palpable and touchable.
The light calls for rest.
Like vespers, it sings:

You have dashed against the rocks,
been rung out on the stones.
In this hour I will carry you
like a mother.
I will shelter you
when darkness settles.
