Pining for the Light

Pining for the Light is a collection of poems written from a Biblical worldview concerning a variety of topics, such as: - faith- grief- hope- loneliness- love- compassion- joy in the little thingsThe prevailing theme of this body of work is that there is an ongoing battle in a human life between light and darkness. It is not necessary to shy away from acknowledging the depths of sorrow and pain that the human spirit can reach in the lows of life, but neither is it necessary to dwell in despair, taking up residence and planting roots in its valleys. These poems explore the complicated emotions of the human experience, the pining for the light, always with the ultimate faith that it can, in fact, be found. "I shape words with my spirit As my only recourse Seeds and whispers >"I'm longing for the dawn In this long lingering night Singing anew one chorus Pining for the light"
