Great Egret
The Light Through the Trees
Photography and Poem by Norma Beaird
Sometimes, in the midst of the trees and the brush,
over the cloudy and dark murky water,
there appears a beautiful and bright, white light.
It's in the distance, just waiting for you to finally see it,
this beautiful white light shines brightly to guide you
as you migrate through life's troubled journeys.
Though your wings may feel heavy, and the flight is so long,
you will soar through the sky and know that God's love
will strengthen you through the wind and the rain.
You may arrive to your destination quite exhausted and soaked,
but spread your wings and shake off the water.
You've made it. The Lord never leaves us in the storm alone.
