Constructive gadfly
Published on December 14, 2005 By stevendedalus In Current Events

Though many loved ones are gone from this world

 — Our hearts forlorn and knurled —

Faith ushers in the comfort of the undying soul

That, as Bethlehem’s Star, emits control

Over the dark imbalance of anxious moments

Conjuring dread and hope’s ambivalence.

Yea, to the Child’s unabated spirit of hope

As we trudge condition’s skittish slope.

Yea, to the departed whose eternal light

Guides us through timorous twilight

Toward the final home where all unite.
