Daylight


Psalm 30:5 New English Translation (NET Bible)

For His anger lasts only a brief moment,
and His good favor restores one’s life.
One may experience sorrow during the night,
but joy arrives in the morning.

 

 

Daylight

 

Daylight is waiting somewhere beyond the dark

Will it ever come if not invited?

Darkness celebrating ... night’s freedom as a spark

as capturing is done ... by demons and the parasited.

 

Hours passing on and on ... will the night ever be lifted?

Artificial light is spread ... by wickedness in high places.

When is the work done ... when will souls be lifted

and procrastination leaves ... and dots connect the spaces?
