Advent has started today, a month of lights will be granted, candles and lanterns -- lets make a Weekly Theme of it:
The Lantern

What holds the light of hope and prayers
the lantern of brightness which offers such peace
reflecting the sadness hidden in layers
evolves belief to help the pain cease
The choice is ours to follow the light of the lantern
for harmony lies within the shadow
if we truly believe we'll never be spurned
the way of the Lord makes our heart mellow

A Lantern
It lights the darkness with special glow
Village, house, or just your face will show
In special colours with some gentle warm
Shine, that even gives us trust in a storm.
Unlike the light from our forceful sun
Giving life to garden, field and fun
The lantern granting us another gleam
In many ways benefit and dream.
Lantern light points out the world for us
Even in darkest room and time, plus
It resides within our hearts so bright
Connects our soul to the sky at night.

christmas candles
In the glow of candlelight
let us remember tonight,
our love for one another,
while the candles shine so bright.
Light a candle at Christmas
while hearing choirs sing
keeping faith and hope alive
and hearing church bells ring.
As we light our candles
let us rejoice tonight.
and hope and peace be with us,
in the glow of candlelight.
Let's all be happy this Christmas
as we celebrate Christ's birth
letting his light surround us
as we wish for Peace on Earth.
