The Invisible Light

 In the first darkness

   invisible light shines

    not the blinding light,

      the bright squinting kind,

but eternal light,

   life creating light

     dispelling darkness

        making something new

the unseen now seen.

The second darkness,

    a deep, deep darkness,

      dreaded and feared,

        the unknown beyond,

but in that darkness,

    the first light shines, 

       bright leading light, 

         creating once more,

behold, the new comes.

Light of the World,

    bringing into being

      all things, the seen,

        the hidden unseen,

shining in darkness,

    the invisible light

      penetrating now

womb and death darkness.

(John 1:3-5)
