ALL THE COLOURS SINGING ON

let there be Light

though a billion candle snuffers out

wait in the wings, chomping at the bit

to cancel it

let there be Light

though choking shadows memorize their lines

to strangle it all in vines of ridicule

eclipsing all that's jeweled

don't pretend that it is otherwise

when you give all your heart

and then you see the darts flying through

a soon vacated room and it's high noon

stay out of the way

of the slayers when they slay

reside in God

Who's seen it all before

at every brightening door

and all inclement wars

let Light arrive to settle the score

with Love

and angels by her side with the Heaven sent Dove

on every Christmas Day

to shine it all away

the fears you feel inside

whenever they deride

and plan it to the max

no glory's coming back

to show us what we lack

but they are wrong

and I will join the throng

a billion light years strong

with all the colours singing

on
