Tabernacle

Lamps

Extinguished light plunges

into darkness stumbling,

sprawling over obstacles,

caught in traps.

Despair loiters

crushing human spirit.

Golden light flames

overhead spotlighting

path, footprints,

marking individual step

enters searching hearts.

Burns a holy wick,

hope lingers.

Proverbs 20:27, “The human spirit is the lamp of the Lord searching every innermost part.”
