moment

 

some people have this inner light

like fireflies on moonless nights

a light that shines for all to see

at our moment of greatest need.

 

some people seem to send out light

lighthouses on a foggy night

guiding us past rocks to safety

at our moment of greatest need

 

some people have this warmth and glow

a smile, a touch, as if they know

when we are wounded, when we bleed

at our moment of greatest need

 

we all could use a little love

when life gets hard, when times get tough

be glad they’re there at times, indeed

at our moment of greatest need.
