A great ring of pure & endless light
Dazzles the darkness in my heart
And breaks apart the dusky clouds of night
The end of all is hinted in the start
When we are born we bear the seeds of blight
Around us life & death are torn apart
Yet, a great ring of pure & endless light
Dazzles the darkness in my heart
It lights the world to my delight
Infinity is present in each part
A loving smile contains all art
The motes of Starlight spark & dart
A grain of sand holds power & might
Infinity is present in each part
And a great ring of pure & endless light
Dazzles the darkness in my heart.
~Madeleine L’Engle
A ring of Endless Light
