Dawn

The night has been long and dark
Ages it seems
Striving to see,
to thrive
but there has been blackness.

A helper comes along.
Guides me to the place I can see
Renewing hope
renewing the chance
that sight will again be possible
for this one longing to thrive.

The sun begins to rise
Suddenly and unexpectedly
Casting light upon the darkness
Renewing hope
Things become visible in the light
Understanding is clearer

Growth can begin
Dawn has come
