From the volume “Tales and Poems for God’s Light in the 21st century” by Gabriela Anderson

Light on Dawns of Ash

Wish for God’s light

on dawns of ash

it’s all your soul’s desire

when clouds of terror rise to bash

your joyful new attire.

The light of God is all you need.

By wand unseen from the above

into rose gardens it turns weed

and into softest purest love

it sacredly returns the dream,

to purest hearts most winning fight

it rises powers to redeem….

That’s all you need

on dawns of ash,

of slavery to sorrow’s morn’

Rise, oh, rose gardens over lash!

In joyful new attire

wish for the bluest softest height,

wish for a new day without thorn….

On weedless fields

blessed by God’s might,

you have one road, entire.

Desire love that kindness yields,

a sacred dawn

that sees what’s Right,

beyond the tears in your eyes

see the sole road:

wish for God’s light.
