THE LIGHT, by EVE P. COX First Line: That tiny spark within Last Line: Which shine through fellow channels. Subject(s): Soul | ||||||||
That tiny spark within, I would fan it with love until It would burn, a constant light; Fan it into a flame, A flame which all could see, A flame of joy and love and peace. This light, the self within, Shining through the personality, Through the human channel; I would that it might so shine To mingle with the many lights Which shine through fellow channels. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE CRUEL FALCON by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE WHOLE SOUL by PHILIP LEVINE I KNOW MY SOUL by CLAUDE MCKAY HONORING THE SAND; IN MEMORY OF JOSEPH CAMPBELL by ROBERT BLY THE CHINESE PEAKS; FOR DONALD HALL by ROBERT BLY THE LIFE OF TOWNS: TOWN OF THE EXHUMATION by ANNE CARSON RAIN AFTER DROUGHT by EVE P.
