Come and See
Come and See
Then there was a faint light
A glimmer of hope in a vault of cloud
No brightness was emitted
Not even shadows could be formed
It seemed to remain still, unmovable
I pondered on its presence
Did it signify new hope or a beginning?
It would not go away
My attention was transfixed
A gradual movement dispersed the remaining darkness
I saw the sun in its full brilliance or was it the sun?
I averted my gaze as it hurt my eyes
My being was being transformed
A warmth enveloped me in a divine embrace
Darkness was nowhere to be seen
The light had penetrated every crevice of darkness
Within my soul a murmuring of joy was born
It was an interior experience, felt within and
Visible only to the eyes of the soul
The moment of salvation had arrived
Not by some clap of thunder
Or a fanfare of trumpets
Only an inviting light which said
Come and See
