Full moon arisen
so doth illumine my way
in this darkest hour
path I choose by guided light
way unknown beyond this step

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

What a lovely description of faith, Ellie! It makes me think of "Lead Kindly Light".

Wonderful Tanka. I liked this one. The last line was a perfect ending.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Ellie...

A true profession of faith...walking blindly in his footsteps, for no other reason except that you believe. Your faith is always an inspiration to us all...

Best

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost
