Glowing Courage

Take off your blindfold
Look what's right beside
Despair is such darkness
Absorbing all that we hide
Surrounds earthly realm
In shadows of night
Where fear never rests
When allowed to fright
Have around your head
Like a mighty halo
To drive away darkness
Courage's light will glow

I'm a mailman and in middle winter we deliver after dark with headlamps around our heads(halos) when its like 20 below zero (F) and very icy (scary) and without the headlamp I am lost....strange metaphor i know... :)

Great poem, Yankee4U!! Very wise words there.

(And I have one of those lamps. Only way I could investigate a car accident on a Main Street, as it was too busy til after midnight. And couldn't hold a torch(flashlight), tape measure, marking pen & take measurements at the same time. A simple, great idea, those lamps. But, of course, the type in your poem is the BEST of all!)
