borrowed glow

poetry Mar 30, 2019

The sinking sun illuminates
the cottage by the sea,
aflame with a borrowed glow,
borrowed from a borrowed light,
reflecting a reflected glory,
like Moses unaware
that his face was radiant.

Liz McFadzean

“At one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.  Walk as children of light (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true… ‘Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.              Ephesians 5:8,9 & 14
