Blinding Light

On By Veera

Hey all! I’m back with my first sparrowlet. Enjoy!

‘Midst darkness radical,a light
Incinerates the immoral,
Hunts prowling predators disguised,
Villainous creatures infernal,
Battling those by evil,driven,
A light ‘midst darkness radical.

‘Midst darkness tart,a blinding light
Glows within every single heart
In which undying good resides,
Even a fragment would impart
Power with which shall dazzle bright,
A blinding light,’midst darkness tart .
