The Lucky Ones

A sunset depicting your kindness
Changes the colours of the clouded sky
Through windows my soul sees
This last kind act of the sun today
And out of these windows, through the door
I can shine as bright as the setting sun

The kindest act the night can give
The stars, the moon and the heavens above
Inspired by the sparkling eyes of God, Himself
Tiny foreign beacons; drops of Sun on a black canvas
A message to be heard by all

A wish for eternity for the walking wounded
A cry in desperation for a sense of salvation
And those just blissfully ignorant. The lucky ones
