Light in Shade.
For years you walked behind,
Your gentle shadow touching mine.
Now life has turned that table,
Your lights ahead of mine.
When I stumble along in shadows
Your spirits a light in my hand.
Illuminating the darkness
Revealing our ‘Promised Land.’
Where youthful dreams are realised,
Where strength and beauty endure.
Where we are what exists in the now,
What we were, or could be, is no more.
