The other night, I was sorting out my pile of old stuffs
when I found this piece of paper in one
of my old dust-ladened Chemistry
textbook. It was the poem which I wrote back in college which fetched me first
prize in an ON-THE-SPOT poetry writing competition. Here goes...
The candle in the dark
Lighting up glooms amid the darkest hour
A beacon upon the clear sky
Shines it’s path for many to see
Many would lurge, stumble and fall
If not for the light of thee
Twas in this light that we see
The shadows that obscure our path
The Holy words of God
The knowledge of being saved on the cross
This is what the candle means to me
To lighten my life forever more
This is my ultimate goal
This is what I’m striving for
To light the candle high on the hill
And shine for all others to see
Tho’ down here below the candle melts
Here in my heart will it keep
Until the day the
Saviour returns
And take me home forever more
I remember this
